How lucky are the people of Leamington & Warwick. Not one, but two excellent model shops within 5 miles of each other ! Best of all they are very different beasts and so both are well worth a visit.
Castle Trains resides in Smith Street, Warwick. Just around the corner (sort of) from the famous castle. It's cheaper to get into the shop though.
Inside the shop is mostly given over to a huge selection of Ready to Run railway models from several manufacturers. Locomotives and rolling stock from N to G scales are available. I doubt there are many shops that can make this boast. To bolster this there is a good second hand selection for the collector, cheapskate or modeller looking for raw material for a conversions project.
On top of this there are accessories including road vehicles, buildings and by far the largest Woodland Scenics range I have seen anywhere. You also get Games Workshop and Airfix kits, paints (GW and Humbrol), Expo Tools and more besides.
Part of the shop belongs to Lego and other toys - the one thing the area lacks is a proper toy shop and so Castle Trains are making up for this. Ideal if you need an excuse to drop in with their family.
As well as the retail place, you can see Marc at railway exhibitions up and down the country.
