Welcome to Martins Model Railways
Hello, my name is Martin Hallett. I have been interested in railways, both full size and model, since childhood. Although I managed to half build a couple of model railway layouts previously, it was not until I retired in 2014 that I started to develop a layout that was suitable for exhibition. The following pages show details of layouts I currently have available for showing at exhibitions, and other current projects.
