Welcome to Pendon Museum
Pendon recaptures scenes showing the beauty of the English countryside as it was in the 20s and 30s.
Visitors to Pendon:
- enjoy an informative and interactive 90 minute tour covering three indoor galleries
- see some of the finest model landscapes, buildings and trains ever constructed
- get a warm and personal welcome from our volunteer staff
- have access to a small café and souvenir shop.
Realistically models recall the landscape of the period and trains provide a fascinating record of the railways of the time and how they operated.
You will find some short video clips here.
" Probably the largest landscape model in the UK"
