Excellent, traditional-style model railway (and other stuff!!) shop. Proprietor has a vast knowledge of model railways, and is happy to share hints and tips. They have all the latest products and news, and can get you virtually anything they don't have in stock.

alan wilson , stratford on avon - 02 Dec 2005 - 10/10

Real, traditional model train shops are hard to come by in London. This is without a doubt the best model train shop in London. The stock is wide and changes frequently. The staff are very friendly and knowledgable and are very willing to pass on tips, advice and bits of information. The shop is a bit out of the way in East London, but well worth the visit. The shop itself is attractive and traditional in style. Upon my first visit a few weeks ago (I have returned several times since) this immediatly became my favourite shop in London!
Hamish Kallin , East London - 21 Aug 2005 - 9/10

Discovered shop via e-bay for slot cars and found it was local and picked up cars saving postage. Since then, I have used Engine Shed consistently for last two years as a shop and via e-bay. Service is always friendly and excellent. Good range of cars, easily visible and well set out in the shop at very reasonable prices, also always willing to order cars i ask about. New Cars are set aside for when I or my godchildren visit and if wanted can also be set aside to pay later which helps my godchildren a lot (and my family/friends for me at xmas). We had one car from a set which stopped working after an hour and this was changed immediately. My personal experience has been excellent and I would certainly recommend engine shed to anyone.
Grant Mosedale , Walthamstow, London - 31 Jul 2005 - 10/10

This place is everything a model shop should be - friendly, expert, lively and well-stocked. It acts as a sort of day centre for central and east london railway modellers and I can't imagine there's a better model shop in the UK
Tony McSean , Oxford - 14 Jul 2005 - 10/10

Excellent shop run by knowledgeable staff with a real interest in model railways. Well stocked, with a wide variety of models from across the model trade. Always a warm welcome. Easy to get to by public transport or car. Definitely worth a visit!
Robert Hawkins , London - 14 Jul 2005 - 10/10
