PERRIN & PARTNERS ACQUIRES ROUNDHOUSE ENGINEERING CO. LTD

Updated: Aug 4, 2023

Perrin & Partners Ltd is pleased to announce it has completed the acquisition Roundhouse Engineering, the UK's leading manufacturer of live steam locomotives for use on G scale, SM32 and SM45 railway layouts.


The existing management will continue to run the business and there will be no changes to manufacturing, design or the operations of the company. It is business as usual, and the same dedication to quality and customer service that has made the company a success will continue.


Perrin & Partners is delighted to be associated with a company that cares so deeply about what it does and delighting its customers.


"Roundhouse is a truly special company. Everyone that works at the company really cares about doing right by the customer, and by having this ethos for forty years the business has got to where it is today. It is an honour that the Loxley's chose us as a good home for their business. There will be no changes as a result of sale, and the business will continue to operate independently as it always has."

Rob Hill-Smith, Director Perrin & Partners


"Roundhouse had been our baby and our life for over fourty years when we decided it was finally time for us to find new owners so that we could retire fully.

In that time, it had grown from a one man operation to a successful and very respected company with a skilled and loyal workforce.

Our main concerns were the ongoing success of the company and security of the employees.

We needed to find a buyer that we felt would allow it to continue and help it grow.


From our first conversation with Perin and Partners Ltd, we were sure we had found the right people.

Managing director Rob was a pleasure to deal with, being patient, understanding and accommodating for our needs and that of our company. He took the time to find out just what made the company tick and to meet and discuss the matter with our management team.


The sale was completed seamlessly and without problems and we are now enjoying our retirement in the knowledge that Roundhouse is in safe hands and continues to operate just as it always did.


We would highly recommend Perin and Partners Ltd."

Chris and Roger Loxley, former Directors Roundhouse Engineering Co. Ltd



Perrin & Partners acquired 100% of shares of Roundhouse Engineering Co. Ltd for an undisclosed sum on 18th May 2023.
