The story of Weinert modellbau

Its programme includes locomotive and rolling stock models, metal kits and finished models, and accessories, chiefly in H0 and narrow-gauge H0m and H0e, with smaller ranges in N, TT and 0. The range also includes road vehicles and railway detailing parts.
The company’s catalogue has covered both vehicle models and layout equipment. Its official site notes that a complete catalogue of vehicles, scenic items and components appeared in 2014; it later described a shift toward separate specialist catalogues, beginning with a digital components catalogue. The Mein Gleis H0 track programme has also been expanded, including several types of double turnout. Current product groups cover signals, track, locomotives, rolling stock, narrow-gauge vehicles, components and accessories.
