Custodians of former Merseyrail electric multiple unit 507001, currently at Alstom Litchurch Lane, Derby.
We will have our society stand at The Thomas Brassey Society's Railway History Day, this Saturday at St Barnabas Village Centre, Bromborough. Come along to chat to Team 507 about the unit, as well as enjoying the other exhibitors and talks.
Our simulator is ready to go at Rainhill Model Rail 2026. Come and have a drive if you think you’re good enough!
Our sim is being assembled at Rainhill!
IMPORTANT INFO: In order to reduce queues and ensure as many people as possible can have their turn, we will be using a timed ticket system. Come to see us when you first arrive at the show and we will give you the next available slot on the sim.
It's the closest you'll get to driving the real thing unless you travel back in time and apply for a job at Merseyrail. Our 507 simulator, powered by TS Controllers, is coming to Rainhill Model Rail 2026 this weekend. See you there!
Join us this weekend at Rainhill Model Railway Club's 2026 show! We are bringing our famous simulator, featuring a real class 507 driver's desk adapted by TS Controllers. We will also have our usual range of wares for sale, and society members will be on hand to talk about our favourite EMU.
We’ll be at Rainhill Model Railway Club’s show on 7th and 8th March. We’re bringing our 507 simulator for any wannabe train drivers out there!
Roses are red,
507001 is blue and grey,
This poem has too many syllables per line so doesn't really scan properly,
But we love it anyway.
On this day in 1886 the Mersey Railway tunnel opened between Liverpool and Birkenhead.
Sadly we had to wait nearly a century for the best trains. 😉
Happy new calendar day! Have you hung yours up yet?
If you haven’t got one, we still have a few available in our shop, now reduced to just £5+postage!
