🌈🚂 WE NEED YOUR VOTE! 🚂🌈

Well… this is exciting! 👀

Voting is now open for the Hornby Magazine Model Railway Awards 2026, and we’d absolutely LOVE it if you would consider voting for Rainbow Railways in the BUSINESS category! 🏆

We might not be the biggest model railway retailer out there — but we like to think we punch well above our weight! 💪🚂

From our little shop in Linlithgow Bridge, we’re busy sending models all over the UK and the World, creating our own Rainbow exclusives and reworks, attending exhibitions, hunting down new releases and, most importantly, trying to give our customers great prices and genuinely great service.

But there’s something else that matters to us…

🌈 MODEL RAILWAYS SHOULD BE FUN!

At the end of the day, this is a hobby. Whether you're building your first train set, starting a layout with the kids, hunting down that elusive loco, or you've been modelling for 50 years — it should put a smile on your face.

We don't take ourselves too seriously, and hopefully that comes across in what we do. We want Rainbow Railways to be somewhere you can enjoy the hobby, have a laugh, ask questions and maybe leave with one more locomotive than you originally intended… 😂🚂

🌈 So, if we’ve ever…

🚂 Found you that model you definitely didn’t need
📦 Sent you another suspiciously train-shaped parcel
💷 Saved you a few quid against the big boys
☎️ Helped you with a question or problem
😂 Made you smile along the way
😈 Or simply encouraged your model railway addiction…

WE’D LOVE YOUR VOTE! ❤️

Head over to the Hornby Magazine Model Railway Awards 2026 and vote for:

🏆 BUSINESS CATEGORY — RAINBOW RAILWAYS

Every single vote genuinely means a lot to a small independent business like ours.

And if you think we're doing something right, please LIKE, SHARE and TAG a fellow modeller who might give Team Rainbow a vote too!

Thank you for supporting Rainbow Railways — and for helping us keep this brilliant hobby FUN! 🌈🚂

🌾 HARVEST MAY BE NEARLY OVER… BUT YOURS CAN JUST BE GETTING STARTED!

As the combines start heading back to the sheds and another harvest draws to a close, why not bring a little bit of the countryside home?

At Rainbow Railways, it’s not all about trains!

We’ve got a growing range of farm models, tractors and machinery, from highly detailed collectable models to something you can build yourself.

BRITAINS

A great range of tractors, farm machinery and implements from one of the best-known names in agricultural models.

UNIVERSAL HOBBIES

CaDA

Fancy something a little different? How about building your own farm machinery?

One of the standouts has to be the CaDA CLAAS Dominator 370 Combine Harvester – an impressive 4,567-piece, 1:17 scale build that doesn't just look the part... it works too!

Once built, it features remote/app-controlled driving and steering, a working rotating cutterbar that raises and lowers, an operating grain unloading auger, opening grain tank and movable rear straw spreader.

The cutterbar can even be removed and transported on its own trailer, just like the real thing!

At nearly 58cm long when built, this is one seriously impressive bit of farm machinery.

Rainbow Railways – definitely not just railways!
