when your a child you dream of getting model trains, when you are married you dream of getting your children models trains, when you retire you can now afford buying model trains. the child in us never dies
Absolutely correct ! I am 69 and am planning a large model layout in my converted loft very soon - so have been buying Hornby loco's and coaches, Metcalfe Kits by the dozen etc., my wife already complains that she is an 'editors widow', and now I am about to add to that, a 'railway modellers' widow !
Not a scale model rail fan but a member of the modelling community, this is a fantastic shop. The more of this type of model shop is what is needed to rejuvenate out hobby.
Hi Brockwell lane, So from what I heard in the video Hornby aren’t doing anymore is this correct. Just wondering as I have a Hornby Lion on order and haven’t heard it’s been cancelled or not happening anymore. Just checking to see if you heard anything at the event about it. Thanks
He was talking to someone else just as I pressed record. I wouldn't like to comment really as I believe there is legal action going on. However Lion is a real loco so I cant see why Hornby cant do Lion.
A little bit more for me... From my hometown of Grenoble, France, it's more like 15 hours by train. But this shop, one of my providers, is one of the good reasons to go to visit Sheffield.
Bit of a down . But now days the price has really gone up making it hard to buy new stuff . That's why moding and up dating old stock is a must . Plus love your layout and your old layouts 👍
@@BrockwellLanemodelrailway Ran the video again. Didn't see the "sound fitted" part of the label first time through. The price I mentioned was for a DCC ready loco. Sorry about that.
Worldwide mail order... Because the UK is no longer an EU member, EU residents sometimes pay more in customs fees on ordered goods than the list price.
Not a fan of Rails. There website is one of the poorest going. They sell most of the second hand stuff through E-bay. I don't think there's any for sale on their own web site. Bit odd showing lots of samples. I wouldn't go there just to order something that's not out. Wasted journey!!
Has to be one of the best looking model shops I've ever seen.
Yes and I like the fact you can see the models out of the box

What an absolutely stunning store, amazing. Best wishes from California
I must go there next time I am in Sheffield , bought from them loads on Ebay over the last 10 years....great vid...
As a customer from far away, what a pleasure it is to see the shop, with all the great models and displays.
I just love model railroad shops and I just saw Jenny Kirk!🤩Congratulations to Rails of Sheffield on their new re-opening. 👍🇨🇦
great shop layout, plenty of drooling going on this end, just wish it was nearer lol

Why Do they still display models that they clearly say sold out as they haven’t as they have one there?
Is the second hand department in a separate place.
The prices of new stuff is utterly ridiculous
That is a fantastic place

Okay thanks
Luckily rails of Sheffield is only 15 minutes away

It's a 40 minute walk from Crookesmoor. But then the hills do give you a work out.
Fantastic to see a shop opening.
Two axle wagons are £37 each now? 😳
Price have gone up since i first turned the red knob on the hammer blue metallic Triang Hornby controller!
Great model building.I’m at the gcr at Loughborough as I comment
Have a good time.
@@BrockwellLanemodelrailway thank ya ou
I hope that it's a successful venture. I don't live very far away. Might visit.

Purchased from this business on ebay. Always had good service.
How much for one Easter egg?
Did ya see Jenny invest in some decent locos 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂great video pal
She was busy doing the her videos. However I did briefly talk to Zoe.
Good job
Some dodgy looking people in that video ;)
I agree.
Flask of tea, homemade sandwiches, l could spend a few hours in shop 🤣
WOW! Not exactly competitive pricing. Some of these models are selling for 100 pounds less than you're selling them for... cough... GT3.
Really with sound fitted? Where are you looking? I can see the sound chip on ebay for £125 but that's not including the locomotive.

Olivias Trains in Sheffield a lot cheaper.
