This is my #1 place to visit for model railway supplies! It's like a treasure trove of all things trains. They've got everything from model kits to trains and carriages. If you're into modelling or have a model railway I highly suggest coming here to come and check out their wide range of stock. The folks who run it are so lovely and help with all your queries and are very welcoming. This is a great little business!

I love this shop. Well priced good value. Great selection of goodies if they haven’t got it you don’t need it. Best train shop I’ve seen except the one in high Wycombe this has a good display of train but here at the railway conductor they can’t be beaten on the products they sell. Fantastic shop

Absolutely brilliant. Bought a whole load of Metcalfe kits to build my very own castle and at a great price. The owner Jonathan and his parents made my shopping trip a great experience.

Always visit this hobby shop when I'm in the area, gear stock of Railway items and also for me, Motorcycle kits. Very friendly worth a visit you can also look online first to make sure they will have what you need.

Having recently inherited a model railway and having no clue I visited this place with my kids. The owner nd his parents that run the shop couldn't have been more helpful with our questions and complete lack of knowledge. We will definitely be regular visitors.

This little shop is run by a lovely elderly couple who were really helpful in taking their time to find what I wanted and price it all up for me. You can pay by card, but your itemised receipt is hand written and they're still using carbon paper for their copy. Unfortunately the Jinty they "have in stock" was lost, which I hope isn't because they didn't seem to lock the cabinet. There are a lot of bad reviews about their online system. I spoke to the owner who pointed out this was run by "a chap with big ideas who doesn't come into the shop". I think therein lies the issue, and I'd suggest only dealing with the shop by physically visiting them. Wide range of scenery, track and trains. I highly recommend it, if only to meet the owners.

Would have liked to see more second hand stock

I enjoyed my visit to the shop today. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The shelves are well stocked, although a bit up in the air after lockdown. Highly recommended

Bit of an Aladdins cave. Lots of choices but not very organized in its display. Display cases are a bit dark and difficult to see what's in them.

A. S.

Excellent online service, item received next delivery day. Very happy with the price for a rare item under rrp delivered. Will definitely shop here again and would love to visit the shop.

D. W.

Very friendly and helpful. Lots to look at and choose from

Great little shop, friendly staff, make you feel part of the family

Just popped in for a browse, hard not to buy something Friendly couple running it and a nice drive out in the country. I used Google earth to find it but I reckon you could easily find it with a good old fashioned map without too much bother. Recommended

Lovely model shop. very friendly and helpful, if item not in stock they will order it. They have lots of stock to peruse. will be calling back without a doubt. lovely restaurant close by also worth a visit. just perused the website it is excellent.

S. T.

Great little shop, carries loads of stock not all of which is on the website (most notably peco streamline). Friendly, helpful and patient - My son loves it, and always wants a go at controlling their little layout - flat out!

This is my local model rail store but ordered online for delivery during lockdown. Everything I ordered was in stock and dispatched in good time, very well packaged and good prices.

What a fantastic find! As a complete beginner to the hobby, me and my son visited for the first time "as enthusiasts" yesterday. The staff are so friendly and really really helpful. We could have easily lost a couple of hours in here. As a complete beginner or experienced Im sure theres is nothing you`d want for in this Aladin`s cave. Superb selection of stock and at great prices too. Definitely worth a look. Theres also a few other shops and a tea room next door and in the spring, there are Lambing days in the shed/farm next door.

Excellent service and range of products, will definitely be shopping here again

Absolutely stunning shop, I’ve never seen anything quite like it the staff are lovely and so is the town it’s positioned in great selection of items and a large number of stock been running years and I can see why they have such loyal customers

D. A.

Sweet hidden away world of model railways. Great selection of rolling stock, lineside kits, peco and gaugemaster stock. Owners are a lovely couple with lots of time for their customers. I will be returning again soon! No pressure salesmanship.

S. T.

Great place we have visited several times. Run by a family who are very knowledgeable in what they do and have many related items for sale plus much more. I highly recommend them.
