Kestrel Designs were established as a manufacturer of N Gauge building kits for the model railway industry in the early 1980’s, and were taken over by model enthusiasts, husband and wife team Dave and Elaine Lidgate in 1987. They inherited a range consisting of just seventeen building kits which has, of course, now expanded to 45 references encompassing all genres.

Kestrel Designs use an injection moulding process which forces molten polystyrene plastic into cavities which have been cut into steel moulds. It is the making of the steel moulds which is David’s forte, and this major interest (and no shortage of skill) that has allowed the range of model railway building kits to grow in the way that it has over the years with perhaps the highlight of the range being the two larger boxed kits of a town station (at nearly twelve inches long) and a “north light” roofed factory. These will enhance any model railway scenery and add that touch of reality to our layout.

The Kestrel range of building kits are ideal to try for model railway enthusiasts who are a new to the hobby, yet still offer scope for “kitbashing” if your modelling kestrel building with chimneyskills are more advanced. With so many identical ready-made buildings finding their way on to model railway layouts, these kits allow the modeller to introduce different buildings on to their layouts at a budget price while also giving them the further enjoyment and satisfaction of building their own kits.

You will find your skills then transfer themselves into other areas of model making and enhance the fun you have from your model railway.
