I took my four 50 year old train engines into the shop in order to get them working (None had been used for 37 years) as I was unable to get them working. They managed to get all four working & Made some necessary adjustments. The service was first class & I can confirm the comments made in other people's reviews are spot on"! the shop offers a very personal and high level of service, much advice is given without any obvious intention to sell you anything. A shop run by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts.Excellent. this will always be my first port of call.

As an old user when I lived in Bristol, Brian and his Good wife always gave help and advise freely. It is always a pleasure to say Hello to Brian at Carn Brea Model Railway Show. Well done old friend from the old Bristol Omnibus staff in the days of the green buses.
This has been my local model shop for the last eight years. I can normally find everything I want and, if I can't, it is speedily obtained for me. Excellent service and nothing is too much trouble.

The shop offers a very personal and competent level of service, and much advice is given without any obvious intention to sell you something. A wide range of stock, including some of those more obscure items you can't seem to find. If not in stock, it will be willingly ordered for you. Prices are very reasonable too! A shop run by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts...excellent.
