I think they went bust a long while ago.

I used to work in the one in meadowhall in the days when it was next to Virtual Reality (the computer games side of Beaties) but it closed down. Then the one in town closed too.

Cant say im too dissapointed as i found them rediculously expensive.

If it's model train stuff you're looking for, there's an old shop on London Rd called 'Sheffield Transport Models'. No disrespect to the owner if he reads this at all but it looks as if it's been the same forever, decor wise. Piles of old train mags and modelling stuff, and he has, or used to have, most of the Hornby range plus quite a few discontinued models.There's also 'Rails' on Chesterfield Rd,Heeley.
