The Virtual Village

New Virtual Village v1.2

The Virtual Village v1.2 is an internet-based feature that lets you build your own 3D model village, whilst signalling trains through the station. Based on Bekonscot, the structures are of 1930s English appearance, and the trains are exact replicas of the real ones! You need Macromedia's FLASHplayer to use or view the Virtual Village. If you do not have this, then you can download it here.

Please note: Bekonscot cannot be held responsible for the content and descriptions of users' own Virtual Villages. Use of the Virtual Village is entirely at the risk of the user.
