Out now: October 2023 BRM

There's something to smile about this weekend – an enjoyable issue of BRM has just come out for World of Railways Plus members, digital subscribers, and is also available to download as a single issue.

We've selected four great layouts, each with an interesting story to tell, and all different in their subject matter.

Great architecture on this 2mm:1ft scale (N gauge) layout, 'Alston' set in the 1950s/1960s, depicting the North East of England. Learn how it was built, inside the October issue.

'Wheal Elizabeth' – a classic Cornish clay scene in 4mm:1ft scale, but this one can change era in minutes, from the 1950s through to the 1990s. Read how it is operated, and see some of the great scenes captured in this issue.

'Whiteacres' – an expansive urban scene, typical of Staffordshire in the 2000s with a great variety of motive power and rolling stock to spot. Read how this layout has been prepared for its return to the exhibition circuit.

Raven's Ravine (OO9) – step into the magical fantasy world of this small model, where towers are guarded by dragons. Great animations to read about, too!
