With a move to a new home the original RVLR (Rea Valley Light Railway) garden model narrow gauge railway was born again starting high up the Rea valley where the river cascades down Rea Falls at the side of which the old Rea Mill stands. Rea Falls station sits above the falls with the RVLR workshops close by. The varied stock is made up of what might have been found on the RVLR and most have been built by myself, some being modified kits and many being my own creations. The idea is to capture the magic of a small narrow gauge railway with stock that is reliable and rugged enough to operate outdoors all year round.
