    Shop is a little treasure trove of difficult to find items. Have been searching for a discontinued station from Metcalfe (PO238) and a copy of Hornby's Railmaster on CD for a while now. eBay, Amazon and all the big dealers, no chance! Shady Lane Models had both in stock at very reasonable prices. Excellent service from Mac McAllister.

    Shop now book marked on my PC.

    A special thank you to everyone at shadylane models. With 2020's covid outbreak making things difficult I was still able to source models and shadylane was able to supply exactly what was needed.

    For a buyer from Australia the delivery during covid is quiet long, shadylane promptly processed the order within a few working days but don’t worry if the mail takes long, for me it was 7 weeks but that’s just apart of these unprecedented times.

    On arrival I could see my order was carefully packaged and there was wonderful little thank you letter as well, it was so pleasing to see after the wait, this is what sets shadylane models apart from other stores. A wonderful service, thank you all very much for your efforts and I hope we can all get bet to normal as soon as possible.

    Called in at the shop today. Excellent selection of model railway items from the major suppliers, reflecting what is in the online shop. Despite the current situation, I was left to browse and peruse the stock on offer at my leisure.

    Thank you for staying open in these troubled times. Without shows to attend I now rely on shops like Shady Lanes to 'stock up'. As an o gauge modeller, many 'sole trader' manufacturers have not yet emerged from lockdown so shops like this one are ideal for me.

    Great kits ...
    A fantastic aid would be a downloadable footprint of all the products which can be positioned on the baseboard to really get a sense of what will work best. I know you provide sizes but these don’t reflect shapes as vividly
    Otherwise thanks and keep up the good work!

    What a star, repaired 2 x N gauge American locos, sent and received back within the week.
    Lots of valuable advice was given.
    A visit to Bideford is highly recommended.

    Thank you for converting my Dapol Terrier to Digital Control. I thought my mate was pulling my leg when he said it can be done. It now runs even better than it did when I first got it a year ago. Thanks again and more loco's will be on their way.

    I've bought a few things from here including a DCC Dynamis set. at the time I knew very little. The man in the shop explained it in simple form so I could make an informed choice. Now I'm motoring. Thanks again. Well recommended.

    Thanks for telephone talk this morning! The wagon I received via my friends purchase is excellent...just waiting for North Deven (Marland Clay!), 4-5 reqiured if or when produced. Do your specials appear under the heading of "Dapol wagons" or individually listed?

  28. Robin Goodall

    Thank you very much. I received my loco with the chip that you fitted this morning. I have given it a new address and it is now cruising around the layout earning it's living.
    I have already given your site address to other friends of mine and I will certainly be back for more goodies

    Cheers Rob

    I found your site and liked what I saw but unfortunately you did not have the diesel loco that I was looking for. An email to you provoked a promt reply and the loco that i was looking for is now on order. Your service has so far been excellent. Thank you Rob
