Introducing a new series of DVDs that look in depth at particular model railway layouts.

"The Right Track to Pendon":

In the second in our new “The Right Track to...” series, we visit Pendon Museum.

Pendon has been described as the finest model railway ever created. In fact there are three principal scenes. There’s Dartmoor, the sea wall at Teignmouth and the incredible Vale of White Horse.

The vision of the late Roye England, it’s a testament to the exacting standards he laid down when he began to re-create, in
perfect miniature, rural scenes of the 1930s on the beautiful border between Oxfordshire and Berkshire.

The area just happened to have a railway running through and, aided by the late Guy Williams, who provided the electrical and mechanical skills to actually make the railway work, Roye eventually saw his dream realised, though not completed, in a
purpose-built museum at Long Wittenham, in Oxfordshire.

The Dartmoor scene features a huge Brunellian timber viaduct carrying a long goods train with 85 trucks - a magnificent

scene indeed!

We follow Tony Wright as he goes on a tour of this inspirational establishment with three key members of the Pendon team.

The construction, operation, history, philosophy and the future of Pendon are all considered - and all illustrated with outstanding detailed pictures.

It’s taken 50 years to achieve these standards, making the Pendon experience one not to be missed.

Running time: 1 hour approx
TV format: PAL 16:9 Widescreen
