Unbelievable levels of stock; far more than is on display and like the notices say, "if you cannot see what you want then please ask". Friendly, helpful advice and seemingly limitless supplies of coffee! If it's not in the shop then they'll order it. Proprietor's knowledge of model railways is very broad and detailed. I was able to open and inspect all the items i purchased and even some that i didn't. They also provide a very speedy mail order service and claim to despatch the same day as ordered.

This shop is excellent even if some of the staff may seem a little wierd (but then if you deal with models and train collectors all day then this is forgiven. They are always very helpful and will offer cheaper solutions if the credit card wont take the strain. Give it a visit, you wont be disappointed.

Tremendous stock. I have brought a great deal from this company but wish the staff were more friendly. If you ask for help its because you are not that familiar with the model world and a little more help would be appreciated.

I have rated this shop a six only. They have a superb stock range and their prices arent too bad but found the proprietor not as helpful as he could have been. Unless one was a regular customer I dont think I would recommend this store personally.
