The Margate layout is back at Margate train station. Celebrating Railway 200, Hornby are bringing together music, modelling, and memories in a way only Hornby can.
After last year’s overwhelming success, ‘Join the Crowd’ is back!
This year, we’ve turned up the volume with the inclusion of local legends The Libertines taking to the stage at Dreamland Margate in our model world and in real life.
The Margate Layout
Designed to reflect the charm and character of Margate, with idyllic countryside views to popular attractions, this layout depicts a special railway journey showing just what this famous seaside destination has to offer.

Hornby teamed up with Modelu to offer something unforgettable and they want you to be a part of it.
Get scanned and miniaturised, and become immortalised as a model figure on the Margate layout. Whether you’re waiting to jump on the train, chatting by the seaside or heading to a concert at Dreamland, your model figure will become a permanent part of our layout, enjoyed by generations to come.
As seen on the layout
Marking the 200th anniversary of passenger rail services in the UK, the Margate layout will feature the Southeastern Class 395 in its Railway 200 livery.
The new livery, replicated in our miniature 4 Car Train Pack, highlights iconic landmarks along the Southeastern route, including St Pancras International, the White Cliffs of Dover, and the Turner Contemporary in Margate.
Meanwhile, the world’s first steam locomotive to haul a passenger train, the revolutionary Locomotion No.1 will stand out at the station for all to admire.
Mark this landmark occasion with our curated collection of Railway 200 models, showcasing products that honour its history and the innovation of British Railway.
Under 16s need to be accompanied by a paying adult. Group prices on request.
