Modelling Suppliers


Modelling Suppliers

It is getting more difficult for modellers to find local suppliers for materials, components and accessories, as local model shops are rapidly disappearing, along with many other high street shops. All is not lost, however, as most materials and parts can easily be obtained on the web or by mail order. Here are a selection of suppliers which have been recommended by experienced modellers within the Club, and which can be relied upon.

Additions to this list are always welcome. If you know a good model supplier you think should be added to this list, please let us know.
