Custom Etched Nameplates

How it works

Choose the names you want for your locos, pick from one of the nameplate styles we offer, let us know what size they should be. We'll take care of the rest.

Our nameplates are produced in batches, a more cost-effective method than etching each pair individually. This means there may be a short wait for your order depending on demand, but we aim to keep you informed throughout.

Once a batch of artwork is ready to etch, we will contact you to confirm the final price and arrange payment. All our regular plates are etched on 0.3mm brass.

If you want a more specific style - either for name or works plates, just let us know. We also have some sets of works plates which can be ordered "off the shelf".

Nameplate styles

We have a number of "standard" plate styles to order immediately but you can always add a note to your order or get in touch if you want something more specific.
