Pendon Museum Model Railways in the Landscape Exhibition Visit 2019

If you enjoy this video then I recommend joining and becoming a Friend of Pendon on their website (helping them at the current time when they have to remain closed). As a Friend of Pendon the 'Friends Place' on the website is full of material to keep you motivated and inspired whilst confined to home. Friends Place has a huge range of videos, interesting articles, archive material and every issue of the Pendon Papers

Footage from a visit to Pendon Museum Autumn 2019. Pendon is located in Oxfordshire UK and comprises 3 main area-
* The Vale Scene - a masive landscape based in the vale of the White Horse with highly detailed / realistic buildings, railways, people & wildlife
* The Dartmoor Scene - with trains crossing the iconic Brunel timber viaduct and passing along the sea wall
* Madder Valley Railway - the first fully scenic model railway and dating from the 1930’s
The footage was taken during a visit with the protective glass screens lowered to allow easier photography.

Well worth a visit, full details and opening times can be found on the Pendon Museum website
