andyman7 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Modelzone stores are offering a £5 voucher (redeemable until 31/12/12 at their stores) if you spend over £50, and a £15 voucher if you spend over £100. Modelzone Exclusives don't count but sale items DO count as qualifying spend. If you can make your purchase just over the £100 mark it's as good as a 15% discount assuming you can use the vouchers (which of course you'll be able to!) Note, not available online!

RMweb Gold big jim Posted October 2, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 2, 2012 is the voucher redeemable on the sale you get it with or is it for a futher purchase if you see what i mean? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyman7 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 is the voucher redeemable on the sale you get it with or is it for a futher purchase if you see what i mean? It's on a future purchase - but remember, Modelzone are a proper model shop in the sense that they stock paints, adhesives, modelling materials and the sort of stuff that doesn't get discounted by anyone. So, assuming that you're going to be buying those materials anyway, you can with care buy something you want that qualifies for the vouchers, and use them instead of 'real' money you would have spent on materials!

flapland Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Holborn Modelzone have a number of heavily discounted Hornby Loco's in the bottom of the glass cabinet. Only about 8 or so but range from Patriot, Royal Scot, M7, Terrier, Stainer Tank and I think a L1(Green early British Railways in full), most if not all DCC fitted. Priced £50(Terrier) up to £89 Scots etc. There is also a GWR Castle or King although couldn't really tell. I picked up Britannia Apollo (only one) and a Royal Scot Kings Rifles both DCC fitted and £89. According to the guy who served me Hornby sent them direct so perhaps clearing some stock. Other branches may have them but I don't know. I also got £15 worth of vouchers to use before 31st December. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium DIW Posted October 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 4, 2012 The Works (appropriately!!) have copies of The Great Western At Swindon Works by Alan S Peck for £2.99 - I dont know if its any good yet I have read a copy. Although it is outside of my usual range of railway reading, I found it interesting. It includes the GWR's influence on the social development of Swindon from a hamlet to the railway town we recognised, as well as a history of the Works. Oh, and it has pictures of engines too.

Tel2010 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 The Works (appropriately!!) have copies of The Great Western At Swindon Works by Alan S Peck for £2.99 - I dont know if its any good yet but at a penny a page it'll make a useful doorstop if nowt else! They also have a loyalty card scheme at the moment where each time you spend over £8 you get a stamp and after four stamps you get a 25% off card thats valid for a few months - Time to stock up on all those cheap brushes etc HI Just a quick word.

Trainmaster!! Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I was at the Folkestone show on Saturday and The Signal Box of Rochester had Bachmann Nuclear Flasks at £14.99 and a DCC fitted network rail MPV at £84.99 - I think they were show offers but they had plenty of the flasks - they said they would have enough stock till around Warley at the same price.

birdseyecircus Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Tescos have some lorries which look to be 1:87, they are very toy like but with some effort and careful placing towards the back of a layout maybe they could look very good on a 1:76 layout. They have 2 types, one being a box type trailer with 'you shop we drop' and another tanker with momentum 99 branding (tescos premium petrol) Bargain at under £2 each! Both are different tractor units too Richard. One Merc and the other MAN. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raffles Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Hattons flogging HJ47s (47508 in pristine BR Blue) for £46. I thought it was a good price considering HJ never made a plain, BR Blue 47 with that tooling. No connection apart from the fact that I bought one.

RMweb Gold Metr0Land Posted October 19, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 19, 2012 Don't think this has been mentioned? Hattons currently doing BR weathered Robinson O4 for £72 + p/p - fortunately for my wallet and my near-Aylesbury layout, none seem to have been based at Neasden. Nothing nearer than Cambridge and Royston. Then again I'd quite like one..... http://www.ehattons.com/38453/Bachmann_UK_31_004_Class_O4_Robinson_ROD_2_8_0_63598_in_BR_black_with_early_emblem_weathered_/StockDetail.aspx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
