Great Eastern Railway Models

Awesome place, free parking and the staff were super friendly even for a super introvert like me.Stock was amazing from new to used they even had tubs of spares & repairs if you need some bits or put a junk yard together.First time visit for me & my son but we absolutely loved it & the selection of used stock & they'll run anything for you so you can check the condition before buying is just brilliant.

Shopping for a gift, very helpful friendly and gave great advice. Highly recommend this shop

Where do I even begin? This shop has absolutely, without a doubt, become my favourite model railway shop I've ever been to. It's away from the city so getting there isn't so hard and you're not stuck in congestion around busy times like Christmas.I've been stuck inside having to buy my locos and wagons online for prices I don't really agree with, I usually dive in for second hand stock as I get more stuff for cheap. I walk in this shop for the first time ever and I am AMAZED at everything, it's a lovely big floor of supplies and second hand stock on the big tables and in tubs under the tables but other parts like track and buildings too, with new stock around the walls and on small shelves holding some other second hand stock too dotted around the floor. I was amazed at everything as I've only been to smaller shops with not a lot of variety, this was different.Under the 00 second hand table and test layout is spares & repairs and non runner locos, so many lovely bargains and locos for me to fix and repaint! The staff are friendly and welcoming, and if you're part of a railway club yourself you get a 10% discount on your purchases as you're in, I ended up basically only paying for my fleet of 0-4-0 Lima shunters (which I'm having fun repairing!), two tankers, a Mainline Class 45 (was a real bargain, all that's busted is one drive gear but runs brilliant) and two Lima MK2s for only £80, the other bits I had like diesel headcode bits and a spare clarabel coach body was basically free in the discount, I highly recommend you stop reading my lengthy review and go in there yourself, once I learn to drive I'll be visiting much more often, if only I could come in more, sadly my college isn't anywhere near here haha, brilliant shop, a 10/10 and I wish a very long life for this hidden gem of Norwich.

I visited Great Eastern Railway Models for the first time yesterday while on a trip to Norwich. Wow - what a fantastic shop! Huge range of models and related products (new and pre-loved) and reasonably priced. Staff were super-helpful and so friendly. I predict many more visits in the near-future!

Great Eastern is a great shop, brilliant for new and pre-owned models. Very helpful team, always worth a visit as you never know what you might find for your layout.

Hello, I paid a visit on Friday to Great Eastern Models. It is really convenient getting the bus in Castle Meadow and I was able to change buses and getting off outside the shop on Plumstead Road. The Staff are friendly and knowledgeable and is a model Railway paradise. Excellent supplies of New and Second Hand models.

Been meaning to go here for some time but finally got around to it. Great shop, plenty of stock to look at from N gauge to O gauge (I can dream). They have a little car park around the back too, which is handy.

Came along for a quick visit and found a nice graham class 31 with extra body, nice shop, good collection and well stocked. Friendly personal and everything nice and orderly presented.. will be visiting again!

Wonderful shop with friendly and helpful staff. Lots of great items in stock for all gauges and a good selection of 2nd hand items too. Bought two n gauge 2nd hand steam engines, Flying Scotsman and the Aberdonian both of which were in excellent condition and the staff ran them as well for us. Would I recommend this shop? Absolutely! A must for any enthusiast. We will be back! Thank you.
