Nigel Andrews , Dolgellau - 18 Apr 2012 - 9/10
I love this shop. Their stock is vast, with prices equal to the large shops like hattons. He is up to the minute on DCC 00 sound with brilliant value last year models etc and his farish and Bachmann just go out of sight.

You may have been in the shop down the street a bit, I was in the albatross today and found an excellent range. Both graham farish and dapol. The owner is very friendly knowledgable and found the LMS royal scot I was after in seconds.

Doesn't stock N gauge any more. A general type of toy shop now

Fiachra Tobin , Wexford, Ireland - 28 Jun 2011 - 8/10

Jon Bissett , Fife - 16 Jun 2011 - 10/10
This shop is awsome for older britains farm models and has a large selection. Everything is piled on top of everything else, a veritable treasure trove from floor to ceiling. It's a pity there aren't more shops like this left.

Alan Cox , Swansea - 13 Apr 2011 - 9/10
Superb range of N scale, although not all always on display as its a tiny shop with a huge stock. He has a lot of older harder to find stuff in there that the big mail order people sold out of. The owner knows his rail stuff. It can be difficult to see what is there but if you ask he has a very good idea and will dig things out. I make a point of visiting every time i'm in aber and i've yet to escape without buying stuff!

Ian Bostock , Warrington - 05 Sep 2010 - 9/10
