Welcome to the Little Red Train website. The Little Red Train (LRT) is a miniature, London Underground, 1938 Stock, Tube Train. It is approximately 1/8th of full size and runs on 7¼" gauge track.

Built by Fred Blois in the mid 80s and bought in 2003 by Daniel Hill and Adrian Allum, it operates at both permanent miniature railways and on portable track at events such as fetes and exhibitions. Please see the Events Page to find out where and when to see the train running.

Also owned by Daniel and Adrian is the 'Ginny', a single car of District Railway 'G(23)' stock. Built by Fred, but never completed, it will require a significant amount of work to get it running.

To keep up with all of the latest news about both trains, please visit the News page.

If you want to find out more about the two trains; their history, technical details and the prototypes, please visit the 1938 Stock and Ginny pages.
