How it All Started
Littleworth models is named after the Littleworth station, which is now closed. At its peak, the station played an important role in transporting agricultural products into London and was part of a wider railway network operating as a stop on the Great Northern Railway’s Lincolnshire Loop Line. At one point, this was the main route for traffic heading north.
The station is now no longer in operation and closed to passengers in 1961, fully ceasing goods transport in 1964. Now the station lives on as a crucial element of British transport history.
The station is a key inspiration for all we do here at Littleworth Models, playing a big part in getting us into model railways in the first place. Here at Littleworth, we try to replicate the station’s former glory with models!
