Had a change in the window display as fairground models need some maintenance as they've been running practically non stop 10 hours a day for almost 3 years.
Now got a railway layout that's gradually getting restored and improved.
Also good way to demonstrate locos I have for sale.
Currently got lots of stock of railway stuff.

Loads of guitars and other instruments ranging from £30 learner guitars to £1000+ Fender electric bass.
Several banjos, mandolin, brass and woodwind instruments in stock as well.
All items refurbished, restrung etc.

New E-Vehicle arrived today- well a 38 year old one to be exact.
Needs a new battery and a good service but lashed up a leisure battery to the connections and everything works as it should, had to put a new tube in front tyre as old one had perished but otherwise pretty much original, even has owners manual, tool kit and charger with it.

G Gauge Railway Project for Shop
I've been wanting to have a railway running around the shop in front of the angled mirrors so gradually been buying and collecting enough locos, rolling stock and track to do it.
Went for G Gauge (45mm wide rails and very roughly 1:24 scale) and now got enough to start the project.
Because the corners will have to be tight I've been mocking it up and pre-fabricating sections in my garden to make sure it will transfer fairly easily to the shop.
I've now got 2 working locos and a tram (in the siding on the video) and enough track to get about 2/3 way round the shop.
So here's a little preview to give you and idea.
If anyone has any LGB track surplus to requirements it would be most gratefully received, likewise rolling stock or accessories.

We have a very good range of vintage and restored musical instruments including trumpets, trombones, guitars, violins, and some more unusual instruments. Stock constantly changing and I have lots of stuff waiting to be restored so ask if you want anything in particular.
Why buy a cheap instrument to learn on when for the same price or less you you can have a top quality restored and serviced one.

19/04/2023

More OO/HO and N Gauge Locos, rolling stock, track and accessories now in stock.
All locos on display have been serviced and tested and are in full working order.
The locos in particular sell very quickly so first come first served on these.

We now have in stock a vast amount of stuff for making and fitting out dolls houses, furniture, dolls, accessories, scenic bits etc.etc.
Too much to get everything on display so if you want to have a browse through what there is please come in and ask.
Most of it is brand new and a lot of a it is hand made and very detailed.
Majority is standard 1/12th scale but do have some other smaller scale items.
