If you have been eyeing some of our products as Christmas gifts (and why wouldnt you be?) make sure your order reaches us by the 9th December. That way we can ensure your gift gets processed and sent out in time for the big day.
This is particularly important if you are looking to buy any personalised items. This will allow time for us to mockup and refine your designs!
We are pleased to present our new line for railway enthusiasts – framed railway art.
The 1st design is an all new design combining the new locomotive line drawings from Andy at J.A.M. Arts with an abstract colour swash.
The 2nd design sees our Replica Data Panels mounted in a frame to create a new twist on our popular signs.
Locomotive Framed Colour Swash
Our next framed design features a highly detailed line drawing of the locomotive placed over an abstract take on the loco livery. This creates a unique and eye catching piece of wall art that would look fantastic on every railway enthusiasts wall!
Wer print the designs onto metal signs which are then mounted on a white mount board and placed in a 530mm x 280mm wooden frame and look stunning!
We have every shunter, diesel and electric locomotive class available along with a growing range of steam locomotives! Simply order the loco number and livery and we will create a line drawing featuring your loco along with all the nuances found on the loco at the time it carried your chosen livery.
Class 47 47805 Virgin Cross Country Framed Swash
90001 Intercity Framed Swash
37688 RF Construction Framed Swash
Class 58 58001 Red Stripe Railfreight Framed Swash
In collaboration with J.A.M. Arts we have researched and created all new locomotive line drawing artwork. This has involved many hours researching photos of the actual locos to recreate a whole new range of locomotive line drawings. Long gone are those historical drawing errors and inaccuracies you may see offered elsewhere!
Framed Loco Data Panels
For this design, we took the standard loco data panel metal sign, mounted it onto a white mount and put them in a nice black 400mm x 300mm wooden frame.
Our replica locomotive data panel designs are referenced to photos of your chosen loco in service whilst carrying your chosen livery. The product is tweaked to reflect specific features such as positioning of depot sticker, local depot livery embellishments, depot mascot stickers and so on.
The standard design is then enhanced by mounting onto a white mount and then added to a 400mm x 300m black wooden frame.

Hi everyone, first things first, I hope you and your loved ones are doing ok in these testing times.
As the Covid 19 situation has evolved, I just wanted you to be aware of what we are up to and how it affects your orders. As of today, we will be resuming full online order fulfilment. All outstanding orders are being processed and will be despatched in the next 4 or 5 days.
What’s In This Update?
There is a lot going on so here is a summary of what you can learn in this update
GDMK Images 2020 Show Season
New Flash Sales
Loco Data Panel Designs Revised and Updated
More Classic Military Aircraft Embroidered Designs
New Classic Military Vehicle Embroidered Clothing Range
Lots of New Pictures Added
Big Editorial Stock Image Update
8th Stitch Creations
2020 Show Season
With the social distancing requirements looking like they may well extend into the summer, I am not sure when we will be resuming attendance at events around the country. There is an underlying health issue in the family which requires careful managing in relation to Covid 19, which adds to the considerations of resuming attendance at public events.
For the foreseeable future, we will remain online only.
This is a real shame as we have some fantastic new ranges to launch, several of which haven’t been seen before on the enthusiast circuit. We were very much looking forward to taking these new products out on the road this year!
Details of the new products will be revealed over the coming weeks and will be available online.
So What Else is New From GDMK Images?
The enforced lockdown has been challenging as I am sure it has been for you guys n gals as well.
The time has been well used by undertaking some necessary, and tedious, website maintenance.
I have spent a lot of time creating new designs and developing product ideas which will be launched over the coming weeks. There is an awful lot for all you railway, aviation and military vehicle enthusiasts to look forward to!!
In addition to this, I have taken been going over customer reviews and feedback and been refining and improving some of our designs.
A couple of times a week I will be grabbing some random items of stock we made up for the ‘not now happening’ show season and putting them up for grabs at knockdown prices!!
Each flash sale will include one railway and one aviation item up for grabs at a great price. Sometimes each social channel will feature different items so each sale gives you a choice of several items!
1st to claim an item gets it – simple as that!
Loco Data Panel Designs Fine Tuned
Our loco data panel designs have been updated. The first big change is that I have been guided by feedback and discontinued the square 200mm x 200mm sizes. All designs are now 290mm x 200mm with a much requested larger size of 400mm x 305mm added to the range. Most locomotive livery designs have had slight tweaks and improvements.
More classes will be added now that the most popular loco classes are available online.
I will be starting a new series of limited edition loco specific data plates. These will feature some of the unique loco colour schemes and depot special variations that have graced the railways over the years.
One of our most exciting developments for this year, was to have been the launch of our Classic Military Vehicle clothing range at Wicksteed at War in June.
Events have overtaken us, so for now, the release will be online only!
We have had a huge amount of requests for a military vehicle range of clothing. Your call has been answered and we will be launching sometime soon, a Classic Military Vehicle range starting with some classic favourites including –
Willys Jeep
GMC Deuce and a Half
Dodge WC-54 Ambulance
Sherman Tank
There will be a load more classic military vehicles added as the year progresses!
These military vehicle embroidered designs will be available on the full range of clothing as per our other embroidered designs!
New Pictures For Gift Products
One of the benefits of the lockdown has been having time to go over my photo archive and select new images to be processed. These will see the light of day on everything from wall art through to coasters, with the original intention having been a whole new library of images for this years show season.
These new images will slowly be added to the website as products over the coming weeks.
This has involved a big review and overhaul of keywords and captions to make searching easier for image buyers.
I have also added a huge number of new images covering pretty much every genre including –
railways
aircraft and aviation themes
everday scenes
construction industry
night and low light scenes
abstract and concept themed ideas
8th Stitch Creations
Those who have met us on the stall will know my wife Dawn.
Having got bored with too many trains and planes, she has taken the plunge and set up her own business called 8th Stitch Creations to make things more akin to her interests.
She will still be the backbone of all our in house embroidery, so don’t panic!
8th Stitch Creations allows her creative freedom to make things close to her heart including a very exciting fundraising project for the NHS!!
She is also specialising in unique memory and keepsake products such as memory blankets and so on.

The first steam gala of 2018 for the Swanage Railway was held over the 22/23/24 March and called ‘The Works Outing’.
This year’s event was a smaller affair than last years mega ‘Bulleid fest’. That event saw 5 Bulleid locos in operation celebrating the 50th anniversary of the last steam trains on the Southern Region.
Steam Locos
The Works Outing steam gala was a purely home fleet gala featuring
31806 – SR Mogul U Class
30120 – LSWR T9
80104 – BR Class 4MT
34053 Sir Keith Park – SR Battle of Britain Class
33012/D6515 – Class 33 working trains from Norden to the River Frome boundary
Train Running
Fridays Timetable seemed to run well without any major operating issues. Saturdays running was reasonably good but the Sunday suffered some delays. Enthusiast numbers seemed down to last year but is not surprising considering the huge Bulleid event was one of the best steam shows of 2017.
Galas and events featuring a ‘home only’ fleet always struggle to pull big crowds when comparing with bigger events that pull locos in from all over the country. That doesn’t mean the event is any less enjoyable. Any event with an intensive service is generally a good crowd pleaser. The costs associated with moving locos around the network means not every event can be massive.
The attendees seemed to have a great day so I would consider the gala a success.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid style=”lazy” items_per_page=”4″ element_width=”6″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1551112038462-5ce3496b-4f5d-6″ include=”52016,52017,52019,52021″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
New Products and Pictures
We had some more new products and pictures which were well received. The new enamel mugs and travel mugs were very popular.
Our latest Stuart Black designs were also well received. We now have a nice range of Stuart’s popular side profile drawings featuring many popular steam locos and a range of exclusively numbered diesel locos. These pictures are exclusively available on our products as we are the sole authorised supplier of these pictures on gift products.
Even though this was a steam event, Doris was happy to model a 50021 Rodney Polo Shirt and Indomitable crest Beanie Hat. Fair play to the steam punters who put their hands in their pockets to help support these two great Class 50s![/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid style=”lazy” items_per_page=”3″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1551112038467-b9ad6a1e-060a-2″ include=”52020,52018,52015″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Au Revoir Swanage
Below is Bulleid Battle of Britian Class 34053 Sir Keith Park leaving Swanage with a flurry on the last nortbound service of the event.
All that was left after a thoroughly enjoyable weekend, was to pack the van and enjoy a quick portion of fish and chips on the seafront before the long drive home![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/zFjeNMD6lN8″ align=”center” title=”Battle of Britain Class 34053 Sir Keith Park Leaving Swanage”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
