About Us
About Lyndons Trains
Welcome to Lyndons Trains — your home for high-quality Australian railway prototype model kits and accessories, proudly made in the Northern Rivers district of NSW, Australia.
Our Story
Lyndons Trains was born from a deep passion for Australian railway history and the art of scale modelling. Founded by Lyndon Summers, the business grew from a simple love of trains into a dedicated manufacturing operation focused on bringing authentic Australian prototype rollingstock to life in miniature.
Based in the hills of the Northern Rivers in NSW — a region with a rich railway heritage — we understand what it means to get the details right. Every kit we produce is a tribute to the real locomotives, wagons, and carriages that shaped Australia's transport history.
What Makes Our Kits Special
At Lyndons Trains, we specialise in what so many modellers have long wanted: accurate, Australian-specific prototype models. Rather than adapting overseas designs, we research and manufacture kits that reflect the real vehicles that ran — and in some cases still run — on Australian railways.
- Authentic Australian prototypes — modelled from real drawings, photographs, and historical records
- Quality construction — kits designed for satisfying builds with fine detail and good fit
- Broad scale coverage — products available across popular Australian modelling scales
- Hobbyist-focused design — made by a modeller, for modellers
Our Products
We manufacture and stock a carefully curated range of model railway products, including:
- Victorian Railways kits in HO, N and soon O scale — faithful reproductions of iconic VR rollingstock
- Detail parts and accessories — the finishing touches that bring a layout to life
- Other popular brands — we also carry a selection of trusted brands to complement our own range
Our Community
Model railways are more than a hobby — they're a community. Whether you're a seasoned scratchbuilder, a layout enthusiast, or just discovering the world of model trains for the first time, you're welcome here. We love hearing from customers about their builds, their layouts, and the stories behind their collections.
We regularly connect with the modelling community through exhibitions and events, and we're always happy to chat trains.
