The Madder Valley Railway
In addition to Pendon Museum's own unique creations, John Ahern's famous and pioneering
Madder Valley layout, preserved as a tribute to the modeller's art in its own right, is on
permanent display. Built entirely by one man, this fascinating layout, dating from the 1930s,
is an historical relic of the early days of scenic railway modelling. It pioneered the idea of
scenic craftsmanship, for until then no-one had set a model railway in a fully developed
landscape. It showed what could be done, and became almost legendary among modellers.
