Sir Eric Hutchison (a.k.a. Eric A.O. Hutchison, Brigadier (Royal Artillery) Sir Eric Alexander Ogilvy Hutchison, 2nd Baronet), was a well-known member of the Scottish model railway community, whose activities included documenting Scottish railway practices and equipment, producing plans and blueprints (some of which were sold by Bassett-Lowke Ltd.), and writing a regular column on model railway construction.

Along with fellow model railway enthusiast and writer Edward Beal, Hutchison co-founded MERCO (Model Exhibition Railway Co.) of Dundee, which produced affordable high-quality lithographed sheets that could be used top give model railways buildings and walkways a brick-effect or stone-effect cladding, or applied to the sides of home-made wooden model railway carriages to give a professional-looking finish.
