In 2000 the Great Western Railway museum in Swindon moved to a new location inside the historic locomotive works site. Nigel Harris takes a tour of the museum, now called STEAM and introduces the programme. The museum provides an insight into life in a big railway workshop which built everything from brooms to locomotives.

It's all in the details
Chris Leigh continues his series of features on model buildings by adding chimneys, gutters and valancing to a station building.

Stretton
Mike Ellis's picturesque '00' layout is inspired by Church Stretton but features a distinctive '009' narrow gauge feeder line as well.
