Frequently asked questions:
What kind of products do you make?
- Model Railway Kits: Our mainstay product, something that we started our journey with. These kits are meant for advanced modelers who can take raw 3D printed parts, paint then, detail them and make their own models.
- Ready to Run (RTR) models: We make RTR models trains, both free-rolling and for certain locomotives, motorized.
- Display Models: Typically made with plastic wheels and couplers, these variants look the same as their RTR counterparts, but they are supplied with plastic wheels and couplers. These are our base. entry variant.
- Custom Orders: Form time to time, we take custom orders, where a commission is taken from a client and the product is made and delivered. Timeline and cost of these projects are determined via discussions with the client.
What in included in the 'KIT' ?
The DIY kits have 3D printed components. Includes all detail parts and appropriate decals and jigs where applicable. Assembly and painting required.
Can I motorise the locos?
Some of the locos are designed in a way that can be made totally operable. For any particular locomotive, details are provided in the product description.
You have the flexibility to make a display model or a motorized model depending on your skills to convert them into a running model.
We suggest using the recommended motors for the optimum performance.
What sort of wheels do I get?
By default, all of the kits except some of the locomotives contain 3D printed wheels. For the locomotives that are meant to be motorised, no wheels are included in the regular kit.
For the rolling stock, 3D printed wheels are included, however, please note that the 3D printed wheels are good for display only and will not be suitable for running the models in a layout. Please use suitable plastic or metal wheelsets available to you. Wherever possible we have provided our recommendations in the product description.

The kit is the most reasonable offering with a lot of flexibility for customisation - for the modeler in you, this might be the right way to start your Indian Railways model making journey.
PMW Pre-order Terms and Conditions
The customer understands that a 'pre-order' or a 'booking' for a model train item is essentially paying for the product in advance, in full or in part, as per the options provided by Precision Model Works LLP ('the firm') for a particular product. The customer understands that the items are NOT IN STOCK at the time of placing this order and will take considerable amount of time for the firm to complete the production and dispatch the items. With this understanding, the customer agrees to the following:
- The estimated delivery/dispatch time is what it says - 'an estimate.' While the firm will do everything in its power to ensure the production concludes on time and the customers who have placed 'pre-orders' receive their items before the items are released for retail sale, the firm neither guarantees nor warrants that it will be able to meet those timelines. Model Train production is a complex process with many variables and at times there might be instances where delays are not within the control of the firm. Under those conditions a delay might be inevitable and the customer understands and agrees to 'wait' till the completion of the project.
- The firm will be responsible to inform the customers who have placed a 'pre-order' or 'booking' of any potential delays and provide a revised timeline to the best of its ability.
- The advance/booking amount paid (either in full or in part) is NON-REFUNDABLE. The customer understands that in the event of any delay the advance cannot be claimed back, and the firm is under no obligation to refund the amount or pay any interest whatsoever on the booking amount for any unforeseen delays in the project.
- Customers who opt for a payment plan understands that the full payment must be completed on or before the last day of the payment OR before the order is dispatched (for which the firm is responsible to notify the customer in writing), whichever is earlier. In the event the customer is not able to complete the payment, a request can be made to the firm to provide a grace period and the firm at its discretion might provide a grace period of up to 15 days.
- In the event the customer is not able to complete the payment even after providing the grace period, the customer understands that the non-refundable booking amount will not be returned to the customer and his 'pre-order' will stand cancelled and the product that he has booked can be sold to another customer. However, the firm, at its discretion, will consider providing the customer with another product equal to the booking amount paid, or provide store credit for future use.
By placing this order and making the payment, the customer agrees to the above terms and conditions. If the customer is not comfortable with any of these terms and conditions, the firm strongly recommends to refrain from placing the 'pre-order'/booking and wait for the production to complete and purchase the product on retail.
