We got third place in the Specialist Retailer category in the Hornby Magazine awards, behind Modelu and West Hill Wagon Works!

Thank you to everybody who voted for Buggleskelly Station. Now time to get pissed in Milton Keynes...

That's one hull of a lovely loco.

I also remember picking up some bargains when they were on Amazon for crazy prices... Those were the days!

Incredibly it's been 10 years this month since Hornby announced their W4 Pecketts.

These little locos were the inspiration for me to get back into model railways after some time away.

I just wish they were still RRP £87.99 not £139.99 but you can't have everything!

I woke up to incredible news as the channel hit over 10,000 YouTube subscribers overnight!

Thank you all so much for the continued support. I hope you continue to enjoy the videos. Your comments and feedback keep me going. I'll think of a proper way to celebrate soon...

This week I have been mostly painting Mrs Wilberforce's houses!

When I ended offering painted buildings I had a surge of orders which I've slowly been getting through. Thanks for your patience everybody, these will be posted this week.

We will then pay all tariffs to the US government before the parcel enters the USA.

This means you pay everything at checkout, with no hidden fees when the order arrives.

Order today at buggleskellystation.com and please share this news with your friends in the USA.

Thanks for your patience while this was sorted out.

It's only me, Mrs Buggleskelly and two cats running things here, and the cats are useless when it comes to website coding.

Orders will now have a 10% tariff at checkout plus a fee (approx £2) to cover Royal Mail fees.

Attention all customers in the USA!

The Fat Controller may have thrown a spanner into the works with his added tariffs, but I'm very pleased to say that we've now set up the website to take these into account, and as of today we can ship to the USA once again!

We went to the Kirkby Green Light Railway in Lincolnshire today for their last running session of the season.

It's a lovely little railway run by volunteers with all proceeds to charity. They'll be opening again to the public at Easter.

I promised a little surprise at Rapido Railex...

Come along for the first (maybe only???) outing of my T Gauge diorama 'Glen Seangan'!

It turns out I'm a modern image modeller now...

The T Gauge (1:450) class 158 bodies were designed by Alex Hondsmerk. I have designed my own chassis scaled to fit and somehow managed to paint them!

Lots of little houses are on their way to lots of very patient customers.

When I announced the end of painted building orders, I inevitably got a huge influx of orders, so thank you everybody, for your patience. There's still lots more to get through, but this is a big job done!

Available as a kit or fully painted. The kit includes modelling clay and ballast to fill as desired.
