Overview of Stock

General information
As previously mentioned, we try what appears to be the norm of having, say, X thousand books in stock which not only take up a considerable amount of space, but also possibly result in many duplicates and monies tied-up for a considerable period etc- possibly even years!. The emphasis is placed more on the turnover of fast-moving quality publications.

Rail
Our principal stock: We stock an ever-increasing range of both new and out-of-print railway titles relating to both prototype and modelling subjects in the UK and overseas, principally the US. Subject matters include main line, branch lines, narrow gauge, underground and industrial systems.

Modelling
Some UK titles and a number of US titles- the latter are mainly Kalmbach and Westlake Publications

Buses and Trams
An ever-changing selection of mainly new books

Maritime
At the present time a relatively small stock of mainly new books about merchant and coastal shipping.

Magazines

We also have an ever-changing selection of the quality periodicals relating to prototype and modelling subject matters.
These run into many hundreds of copies, almost all are loose and are too numerous to list individually with the stock changing rapidly.
Titles include:
UK: Model Railway Journal, - most issues between 0-200 onwards, Great Western Journal, British Railway illustrated, Bylines, British Railway Journal etc
USA: The majority of these these are wholesalers surplus copies and virtually as new. Titles include: Diesel Era, Classic Trains and occasionally Narrow Gauge and Shortline Gazette, Railfan and Railroad, Railroad Model Craftsman etc.

In addition, we also have a number of bound copies of Railway Magazine from 1928 onwards which it is intended to list separately as and when the opportunity arises.
