4mm / OO Scale Model Railway Royal Mail / British Rail Platform Trolleys
4mm / OO Scale Model Railway Royal Mail / British Rail Platform Trolleys suitable for BR Station Platforms.
These were to be seen on just about every major station on the British Rail network in the 1970s and 80s. Those owned by BR were painted blue, similar to the BRUTEs, and those owned by Royal Mail were painted pillar box red. Regardless of colour, they made excellent beds, sofas, and picnic seats for trainspotters all over the UK.

These OO/4mm scale trolleys are intricately designed from scratch, and are based on real-life measurements and photographs of the prototypes. This attention to detail ensures an accurate and highly realistic representation for use in platform settings. Each pack includes three unpainted resin trolleys—two high-ended and one low trolley—offering variety and flexibility in creating detailed platform scenes.
Each trolley is made up of two separate parts: the trolley body and the handle. This design allows modelers to display the trolleys in different configurations, either with the handle raised to indicate the trolley is parked or lowered to suggest it’s being towed. This simple but thoughtful feature adds realism and versatility, helping you create dynamic and engaging scenes on your layout.
We specifically recommend Valejo acrylics, known for their high-quality finish and ease of application. Whether you prefer a clean, freshly painted appearance or a weathered, worn look, these trolleys are easy to work with. Once painted, they can be securely assembled using cyanoacrylate (superglue) or epoxy resin adhesives.
Although the photographs show the trolleys in use alongside other platform furniture and accessories, it’s important to note that these additional items are not included in the kit. However, they may be available separately in our catalogue, allowing you to further enhance your station with matching platform equipment.
In conclusion, this trolley pack provides an excellent opportunity for railway modelers to add realistic details to their layouts. With accurate designs, easy assembly, and painting flexibility, these trolleys will bring an extra level of authenticity and charm to any station scene.
