    Good selection of models and friendly staff. Plethora of new and used (like new and tested conditions) model rail accessories in G,O,OO, and N-scale. Model rail items ranged from 2GBP to 1000GBP for beginner and expert modellers. Shop only has access from the platform and is tiny making the space accessible to people with disabilities but those who use wheelchairs will not be allowed in due to the size of the store. I visited the store multiple times over a 3 day period and purchased many items. Stock was constantly rotated with new items in with every visit.
