About Us

Scale Model Scenery Limited is a family-run business, based in Cornwall, UK, supplying high quality, pre-printed and laser-cut kits, textures and accessories to model railway & scale modelling enthusiasts all over the world. Our work is inspired by the world around us, with attention to detail being one of our highest values. These kits use photo-realistic textures throughout to ensure that once assembled, the finished model will look as close to the real thing as it possibly can. Our goal is to bring you a "Realistically Better" product to enhance your modelling experience.

Justin Noble (Founder & Co-Owner of Scale Model Scenery Limited and RailwayModellers Club) started doing downloadable textures and some basic kits from 2010-2014. In his teens, one of his hobbies was modelling but stopped doing it to focus on his career in Electrical Engineering which he went to university for. He realised that he didn't have any passion for this career path and got a job offer to do web design. Justin taught himself how to use Photoshop. Thinking back to his teenage hobby, he saw opportunity in the market and from here, putting 2 and 2 together, started creating textures and basic kits for modelling.

Scale Model Scenery has been awarded Hornby's "Specialist Retailer of the Year" in 2019, 2020 and 2021. Our products have been featured in many magazines such as ModelRail, BRM, Hornby and RailExpress. As of 2025, we have partnered with PECO 

💡 Where it all started... 

  • 2009: Released first downloadable OO scale texture papers via ModelRailwayScenery.com, which started off the business... building up a range of over 400 instantly downloadable building kits for model railway layouts & diecast dioramas.

  • 2011: Launched the first weekly Newsletter... which has now astonishingly been running every week for over ten years!

  • 2013: Released our first major download kit - KX005-OO Victorian Ale House. It was the first to get any magazine exposure! Through the natural progression of product development & customer requests we started to offer a large proportion of our kits and textures in pre-printed format.

🖨️ How the range developed...
  • 2014: Scale Model Scenery opened its doors officially in September, with over 400 instantly downloadable building kits for model railway layouts and diecast dioramas. 

    In November 2014 we took delivery of a Laser Cutter which enabled us to expand our range considerably, with the launch of the LaserScenes Mini Kits range.

    This rapidly expanding range allows railway and scale modellers to access the precision and accuracy that laser cutting affords through the easy to work with mediums of card, wood & plastic.

  • 2015-2017: Expansion of the business meant the addition of a laser room! This rapidly expanding range allows railway and scale modellers to access the precision and accuracy that laser cutting affords through the easy-to-work-with mediums of card, wood and plastic.

  • 2018: Showcased products at the first Warley show in November which greatly improved visibility in the marketplace.
  • 2019-2020: We have proudly been awarded Hornby's "Specialist Retailer of the Year" in 2019, 2020 and 2021. Scale Model Scenery products have been featured in magazines such as ModelRail, BRM, Hornby and RailExpress.

🏢 Warehouse move!
  • 2020: In June, Justin and Tina made the huge leap to relocate from a home-based business in the Midlands, to a brand new industrial unit located at Tresillian Business Park, near Truro in Cornwall, UK.

    The move was to allow the company the space it needs to expand the range and increase production capacity over the coming years. We have a well-stocked shop with well-known modelling brands, our own kits, and dioramas on display in the HQ - come and visit us! (Be sure to check our opening times first.)

🏪 Supporting local modelling shops through PECO!
  • 2025: A limited range of Scale Model Scenery OO Scale kits are now available through any authorised PECO retailer! Pop into your local stockist near you to browse.
