lazythread Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I'm giving Pop Up Designs a shout out here. First, for their great laser cut kits of Scottish prototypes. I was looking for some suitable station buildings and canopies for a freelance layout and found exactly what I needed. Second, for their lightning fast service. I've ordered twice from them, both times my order arrived next day. I have no connection with them other than as a very happy repeat customer. https://www.popupdesigns.co.uk/product-category/railway-scale-models/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Kris Posted August 24, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 24, 2022 Interesting to see that when you purchase from them some of the money goes to charity to support children. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted August 24, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 24, 2022 The estimable Ben Alder (Richard) has assembled more than one of their products, and given them a thumbs up. Sadly his pics may have been lost in the meltdown earlier this year. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, a lot haven't been kept and it is only the last three or four years that I started an annual RMweb folder and all previous images are scattered over several large files, with no real indexing.I have a thread about the range but it is away in a sub forum somewhere I never seem to find, so may as well add any future kits to this one. Here is one of the latest from Iain, the designer, - a Glasgow tenement. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Some more from him - CR stuff this time - Glenfinnan signal box - the station itself is on the to do list, and a typical station design from the southern part of the system based on Kir knewton. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Latest from Pop Up - two more for the Dornoch portfolio - a gable ended goods shed of a type used in various places on the HR and a John Menzies kiosk that graced the platform there. These two kits mean that all the railway main structures needed to model Dornoch are now available with only one or two small huts needing to be scratchbuilt. The kiosk also has applications all over as these were sited at many stations for decades. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 The kiosk ready for plonking...I built a batch for several destinations, with variations on window and door coverings. 8 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium TheQ Posted February 25, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 25, 2023 I do like pop up designs, I've built 2 signal boxes and a loco shed in N. I note they'll now reduce an 00 design to N, but warn it will require more work. I'm likely to order Plockton station since I used to pass it on the way to school and a couple HR water towers. I hadn't thought of a Menzies newspaper cabin but that might be thrown in too. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Latest from Pop Up is Grangemouth loco shed. This will suit both steam and earlier diesel modellers as it was kept in use as a diesel depot till the early 90's. Pics from Pop Up. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Latest from Pop Up is a kit of Thurso station. It can be modelled as its current internal state or the earlier version, and with a bit of adjustment pass for Wick as well. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Alder Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I was talking to Iain a week ago and he showed me his latest project that should prove popular - a distillery building. Here are a couple of small images - I'll post more when they are ready. Still in the design stages but he works quickly, and should be with Pop Up soonish. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Distillery kit is now available on Pop Up's site in three scales. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Iain's latest - a model of Macduff engine shed - should have appeal beyond the GNOS area, I would think.... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signaller69 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Having finally decided to place an order, have the Pop Up Railway Products suddenly moved to a different site, as their website won't allow me to view the railway models, but everything else seems to work? It worked fine last week. Or is there a problem with the website? TIA, Martyn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Alder Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Didn't work for me this morning, so phoned Pop Up this afternoon. Andy said the site was down a few days ago for a while but apparently sorted now. He opened up both home and railway pages while on the phone with me to check all was OK. I have just tried opening it from the link above and in a fresh search, and both work, including the railway section. Using Firefox and DuckDuckgo. HTH. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Alder Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 It isn't opening ATM on the link further up the page but I'm getting it by Googling the site.

Signaller69 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) Thanks all, as per above I have just tried again via Google and the site appears to be working now. For some reason I couldn't get checkout to take me to PayPal but managed to place my order and pay via credit card. Martyn.
