What are the model train eras?
Railways have always been an evolving industry, spanning over 200 years and showcasing all the latest technological advancements as they became available. The history can be difficult to follow, but the model railway era system makes it easier to pinpoint where locomotives and rolling stock would have been created.
Era 1 takes you right back to the beginning of railway travel, with models such as Stephenson's Rocket and The Lion This has traditionally been a difficult era to model, with few manufacturers wanting to create the icons of this time. But with the help of our fantastic researchers and development team, we offer a wide range of models from the pioneering era.
