Testimonials

The work Mark has done on my Bachmann ‘Hogwarts Castle’ is fantastic, from the addition of tiny directional front lights and amazing coal fire flickering, through to a great DCC sound conversion with a wonderful bespoke soundscape. The ‘Hogwarts Castle’ has been truly transformed and with the smoke generator installation he has really performed ‘Magic’. Many thanks for such a wonderful professional job and all completed so quickly.

I found Mark’s recording of a Class 20 with bespoke lighting on YouTube. Having just purchased a new Class 20 fitted with an ESU decoder a few weeks earlier at the Glasgow show, the lighting featured in Mark’s recording was, for me, a must have addition to a fine model. I requested the same lighting features and my Class 20 was received back yesterday, 17/04/18. What superb workmanship with everything completed as Mark described, the marker code lighting is really top-notch and Mark already has my Class 26 as a second project for lighting refurbishment. Well done Mark, a true craftsman.

I cannot praise Mark highly enough. Firstly for taking on a job that others declined because of its difficulty and then for performing a small miracle in converting my tiny loco to DCC in such a timely and professional fashion – less than 4 days including transit time in the mail!

Extremely impressed by Mark and his work, I can highly recommend him to anyone. The weathering service he offers is outstanding and his attention to detail is second to none.

A thoroughly professional service from start to finish. I was kept informed of progress at every stage, with likely costs explained very clearly and a realistic assessment of what could and could not be done. The work was completed promptly, and the items well packaged for posting back. I am very pleased with the outcome, and I intend to have more locomotives similarly converted.

Another excellent high quality job done, 2 locos converted to DCC and weathered. Extremely professional finish and very realistic. Can’t recommend enough…

I sent my n gauge class 60 Colas diesel to Mark to have a Zimo decoder fitted, as well as cab lights and drivers and have it weathered. I was advised at every stage as to the progress of my order from arrival to dispatch. I hardly recognised my diesel when it returned, it looks fantastic. The weathering was stunning with so much detail throughout. Thank you Mark for such a brilliant job.
