Railway Modelling.

This course focuses on the importance of actively maintaining your model, rather than addressing repairs as they arise. Participants will learn about techniques for routine upkeep, including cleaning, lubrication, and inspections, all aimed at preventing issues before they occur.

By gaining the skills offered, individuals will become practiced and confident in working on models, ultimately minimising downtime and extending the working life. Designed with all levels of knowledge in mind, the course comprises organised modules that each provide a solid foundation in maintenance practices, supplemented by practical tips.

By the end of the course, you will not only recognise the significance of regular maintenance but will also possess the confidence and expertise to perform it.
