Detailed Description
Detailed Description
This is a 4mm scale model of Tackley Halt Station in Oxfordshire which still survives today in it's rebuilt form on the main line between Oxford and Banbury. Tackley Halt was originally built by the Great Western Railway and opened on April 6th 1931. It consisted of an up and down platform with wooden shelters on each platform. It was refurbished in 1993 and it is this rebuilt form on which the model is based. The platform lengths are somewhat shorter than the prototype in order to fit in with the majority of most modern day layouts, where space is a premium.
The model
The model is moulded in pre-coloured plastic and requires the minimum of painting. For the best results it is best to pre-paint any of the detail parts whilst they are still attached to the sprue, where the individual parts are numbered, to help with identification and assembly.
This is fairly easy kit to assemble when following the instructions included with the item and would prove ideal for a beginner.

Customers praised this OO scale station platform kit for being "straightforward to put together" with "well detailed" components. Described as "fantastic value for money" and "perfect for a small halt," it's ideal for branch line stations and layouts. With weathering, it "looks the part quickly" and becomes "very realistic." Some noted it appears "a little plastic looking" before painting.
This looks like a nice station platform kit to build. It looks well detailed and straightforward to put together. Once painted and weathered it will be very nice. I've ordered a few lamps to go with it.
it’s a great little kit. for the price it is, and with some decent weathering it looks the part quickly. impressed with the price.

They are great little halt stations that I will be adding to my large loft layout the detailing is great though arguably a little to plastic looking however with a little modelling this will stop being a issue and will leave you with a great platform to bring your layout to life.
I've got a couple of these now. Straightforward assembly. Very realistic especially if you add a bit of weathering. Perfect for any modern era layout.
