The Signal Box in Rochester, Kent is not very far from Greenwich.

I have not been to Britain for over 40 years, the navy museum in Greenwich was great then and do not miss the Science Museum in Kensington Alan, in Gosnells, Western Oz. VK6 YAB VKS 737 - W 6174

Yes, it is and, if you want the opinion of a maritime re-enactor like myself, it's a waste of bloody time going there.

You'd be better of spending more time at the Signal Box. They tend to specialise in OO gauge with half the shop taken up with OO stock - being Hornby and Bachmann British RTR. They do keep a good range of British N Gauge with a limited amount of American N also stocked. They do stock some small amount of RTR O gauge and have, the last time I visited, a good range of lineside accessories and kits for both OO and N, mainly Ratio, Wills and Kestrel.

You won't get much of a discount off of displayed prices as their stock is heavily discounted anyway. By experience, it's one of the cheapest model railway shops I have shopped from.

Have fun wherever you decide to go though.
