23.01.2022 It looks like a normal passenger car, but our Booster Riding Cars give you an extra 2kw of pulling power! If you need extra grunt for your engine to pull a heavier load, or you just want a simple run-about trollley, our powered riding cars are perfect for you. Much cheaper than a second locomotive, they are available ready-to-run, kit form, or unpainted, and can be customised to suit your styles. Both 5" gauge and 7.25" gauge versions are available....

22.01.2022 Hi everyone, As you are aware the NSW Government is shutting down non-essential businesses and travel, which is affecting us. Our staff have been told to stay home until further notice, and we are not accepting visitors or making deliveries. In the meantime, I will be busy in the workshop moving forward key projects, ensuring we can keep going and get things back on track when this all blows over.... As always, take care and stay safe! Roger.

20.01.2022 We have a Youtube channel that features more videos of our trains in action, as well as longer versions of clips you may have seen here. We also videos of club and backyard railways we have visited, and locomotive testing like this one. A Tasmanian V Class - Drewry Shunter - on a 12 car load test at Box Hill in Victoria!

17.01.2022 Based on the Bagnall industrial shunters known as "Judy" and "Alfred" which worked at Par Harbour in Cornwall, MTS Builds the "Vulcan" type heavy duty electric steam-outline locomotives, they are powerful engines suited for club tracks and heavy backyard lines. Available as 1kw 24v or 48v, they will haul 4 carriages each on most tracks. Check out our website for more info! http://www.minitrains.com.au/search.php?PartNo=L7CESV

16.01.2022 The EM Baldwin diesels are used extensively up on the Queensland Sugarcane Railways, pictured here during a harvest season. A large range of these were built from the 1950s-1980s, and were part of the transition from steam to diesel in the industry. We import the 5" Gauge Maxitrak model and upgrade it to suit local needs, including MU operation and Sound Systems.
