This year marks the 50th anniversary of the first public showings of the early Pendon models - a few buildings, four locos, two wagons and a coach, all displayed in a youth hostel. Today, housed in its purpose-built two-storey structure, the museum has developed into an internationally renowned organisation. Jeff Askew reports on recent progress.
