A superb model shop for a new railway enthusiast like me.Always helpful,willing to phone when stock comes in.The most important thing for me has been the willingness to answer questions simply and concisely.I can recommend this shop and its staff to everyone.

I visited the shop this week for the first time and it was a nice suprise when i arrived, as i am new to the model railway world and so did not know what to expect but the people were so friendly and extremely knowledgeable due to the fact i am unable to speak i normally rely on my wife to translate for me which can at times be very frustrating all round but these people took the time and had the patience to help me, i could not get over the vast range of products they sell for all aspects of modeling and all top quality brands at the same sort of prices i have been paying on e-bay for used items! I left feeling much more confident that i can build my layout properly something i was in doubt about before my visit.I highly reccomend this shop to both newcomers and experienced modellers alike although it is around 60miles round trip for me to get there it is well worth every mile. I wish them every success for the future it is well deserved.

I will definatly be going back to the shop and will be recomending it to my friends.

Martin and family are a friendly and very helpful involving modelling. Nothing is too much trouble,with my knowledge I can transform from reality to a model railway in the period of BR blue 1982 in my layouts.

Being established in 1987 this is T&R MODELS 20th.year in business and during that time have gone from strength to strength building a large customer base, a good reputation, and a web site. We are commited to provide all items required by modellers and in recent years focused on '00' & 'N' gauge model railways. Our shop displays include rollingstock 'out of their boxes' so customers can see the wonderful detail available these days. Our shop was extended three years ago allowing customers more access to products in the comfort of an air conditioned shop with space to move around.
We would like to thank all our freinds and customers for their continued support and Adrian Hall of 'UK Model Shop Directory' for promoting both us and the hobby.
