Outstanding Service
I originally asked Scale Model Scenery to email when something was back in stock, and I received the email only a couple of days later! They then dispatched my online order extremely quickly, and I received it in New Zealand only a week after ordering. Everything was well packaged and excellent quality. I will definitely buy from here again.

Hi Len, thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it. Enjoy your items and happy modelling!
Good kits in O gauge
Really good kits and nice to see someone catering for O gauge, although an even larger range would be nice as some things are only available in OO. The only reason I haven't given the full five stars is because the instructions could sometimes be better and you have to work things out for yourself. But other than that I've had no issues and I've always ended up with something that looks excellent for a fair price. I would definitely buy from them again.

My hubby has just started building himself a model railway. After going on the site ordering bits for him, I got carried away and thought I can have a go at this. I'm hooked have brought loads of houses, shops etc etc. They are all fantastic and the instructions are great as I'm new to this modelling experience. The products are well made and look great. Delivery is excellent and I've even contacted them and have been rung straight back very very helpful. So I will strongly recommend them.

A vast improvement to my rough effort
The product was as hoped and has turned a mediocre effort into something that I am quite proud of. Thank you

Hi Richard, excellent - rightly so! Thanks for your review and for shopping with us on your modelling journey. Happy modelling!
Consistently high quality products.
As always the models I bought were carefully prepared and, when constructed, look extremely realistic (though a bit more weathering always helps!)
I sometimes find the instructions a little tricky to follow as the photos (generally a good idea) are really rather small. So maybe an 'exploded diagram' of the fiddly-bits might help those who are new to modelling at this level?
As always, great service and rapid delivery.
Thanks

Fantastic products indeed
Fantastic products indeed! I was thrilled to be able to order again to mainland Europe after a long pause due to regulatory changes, thank you for sorting that out!
Most of the accessories on my extensive model railway are from Scale Model Scenery - they are great

Scale Model Scenery is my first place for buildings and scenery
The models are of amazingly high standards, the same as the other one I've bought from Scale Model Scenery. They are my go-to place for scenery and accessories. They are of wonderful quality and models of the things I need for my model railway.
