UK Model Directory
3D Train Studio UK has created several UK outline models. These are not available in the online catalog but they may be downloaded from here. All the models have been developed and tested at HO scale, but the models are full size so they should work at other scales.
The 3D Modellbahn Studio online catalogue has very few UK outline models and these are inclcuded in this list for reference.
There are some lovely detailed models on Sketchfab, but they tend to have a very large number of polys which can cause performance degradation in 3D Modellbahn Studio animations. They don’t meet 3D Modellbahn Studio model standards.
If you have a UK outline model you are willing to share, please contact us.
To use one of 3D Train Studio UK models:
- Click the “Download model file” button to download the *.mbe file to your hard disk.
- In 3D Train Studio, go to the Catalog menu, Browse sub-menu.
- Navigate to the downloaded .mbe file, select and save.
- You’ll then be able to find and use these models through your “My 3D models” icon.
- The paid-for version of 3D Modellbahn Studio is needed to be able to save models.

No. of models: 8
Track
Variations:
- None.
This track is a spline so it can be stretched and curved.

Track - 18 Degree Bend
Variations:
- None.
The curve has a radius of 550mm at 1:87 scale and an arc of 18 degrees which matches the points. Using a point with this piece will split one track into two which are the correct distance apart.
This track is a spline so it can be further stretched and curved.

Track - Buffers
Variations:
- None.
Replaces the previous buffers object offered by 3d-train-studio.uk which did not comply with 3d-modellbahn-studio standards. This buffers object is quite short. It is a rigid spline and cannot be curved.

Track - Crossing
Variations:
- None.
The crossing is symetrical and can serve as a left hand or right hand crossing.

Track - Left Hand Point
Variations:
- None.
Unlike most points in the online catalog, this point has a frog, check rails and the point blades are animated. The blades will switch automatically to match the route set for the point.
The curved route has a radius of 550mm at 1:87 scale and an arc of 18 degrees.

Track - Short
Variations:
- None
Although its possible to use a standard track and make it shorter, the sleepers can become too squashed. The sort track is useful for this application. The short track is a rigid spline and cannot be curved.
