Probably due to public demand, and date-changes for other events, our only exceptional non-opening day in November will be Saturday the 15th. We should be open as usual on Saturdays and Wednesdays for our Winter hours which are 1 to 4pm but these can vary slightly. You are always welcome to check beforehand, and the on-site recommended Cafe Bricks is open every day except Sunday until 3.30.

Hello. The 15th of November is another likely closed day for the same reason, and when so-called Summer Time ends, we'll probably revert to 1 - 4 pm as 'Winter' hours of opening, still on Wednesdays and Saturdays. We don't want to miss you so please ring if you are travelling far. Now in, we have some Hot Wheels Boulevards, and Vintage Dinkies, plus the usual odd mix of unusual (yet possible) gifts. 

Closed days - we usually manage to open on Saturday and Wednesday afternoons, but 8th of October & 8th and 12th of November are likely to be days when we are not open due to a model rail/model car fair.  

Hello - we'll be closed on 6th of September - but open as usual otherwise; just in are some good quality but low-cost 1:87 vehicles for railway layouts, and more Siku and Majorette toy/models. See you soon!

Our usual hours on Saturdays and Wednesdays from 9th to 23rd of August may be disrupted - please give us a ring to check! and....massive free diecast trade catalogues clearout now underway, plus other goodies!

Summer opening

 

Hours may be erratic during the summer months - but always glad to open on demand - or worth trying at short notice if you are not far away. Latest in, are some items from Greenlight, Car Workshop, Siku, EFE, Norev and Matchbox, in scales from1:24 to 1:150, and a jumble of second-hand/rough condition small cars, military models, buses, and Tekno spare parts. Plus the usual mix of transport and art/design books.

Our closed dates in June are Wednesday 4th and Saturday 7th but we are usually open on Weds and Sats 2-5 and often open on other days. Recent second-hand items include Budgie, EFE, Corgi OOC and Matchbox, and some cine transport films are available to view but you may need to wait for darkness to fall as we don't have any black-out!

Mayday!! Due to festivities associated with 1st May we won't open on Saturday 3rd. This is to give our many workers a proper break. Other opening times available at short notice as usual (after 5th). Recent discoveries include EFE and Corgi 00 buses; and finding out the movie projector doesn't show standard-8 films, only Super-8, but including sound. You can review your old home movies here if your old projector has given up, and offers of old Super-8 movies are always welcome.

We'll be closed on Saturday 26th April at Smithbrook Kilns as it's the Bluebell Railway collectors' day, but open at other times and for the usual hours on Saturdays and Wednesdays. New in are 'N' scale road vehicles, some Greenlight and Boulevard items, and more Majorette toys. We'll also be firing up the old single/super-8 projector, so if you have any cine films you haven't seen in years, bring them along to see.

 Today we are closing earlier than usual, but open for the 'normal' hours on Saturday 12th April.

New diecast models and toys arriving all the time, and the 'find it' search service is still available!
