It’s the end of an era for Scenecraft buildings, at least for this range as we know it because, after almost two decades, Winter 2026 sees the final instalment of new buildings and accessories from the brand.

Possibly the most prolific building company in Britain, Scenecraft has produced maybe half a million or more models of miniature buildings and structures. Today’s announcement includes new models for N Scale including the GWR Standard Station, the Newsagent Platform Kiosk and a final trio of Low Relief shops. Popular models like the House Under Construction and the Red Star Parcels Office return in both N and OO Scale, the latter also welcoming back handy accessories like the Rail-Built Buffer Stops and the Colour Light Signal.

Whilst there are no new announcements for the range today, the Scenecraft range of Figures continues in production and further new figure packs are currently in development for announcement in the future, alongside further production of the current range.

As this is likely the end of Scenecraft as we currently know it, then now is the time to explore the range and stock up on any items you need for your next project before they go!
