The Company
 |
|
One of the few surviving model railway casting companies in England, P&D Marsh
has over the years acquired the lines of some former competitors, including JP Models, TTK Models and
Graham Avis Details. The result is an extensive line
of soft metal detail castings and kits. Mr and Mrs Marsh, the founders, sold the company in the early 90s. |
The Figures
These unpainted cast metal figures and kits are typical of those offered by countless British cottage industries. Note that they offer
"Scene Packs," which bundled items from multiple sets; these are not included. Some figures are available pre-painted by Graham Avis
Details.
Images of the unpainted kits are from P&D Marsh; the four PDX-series images are mine.
