Unitedite Returns 99 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Hornby Dublo, Scaletric, Meccano, Airfix - whenever I see any one of the products from any one of those manufacturers, usually these days in antique shops and the like, the image of Saturday mornings in Redgates, always come to my mind. Happy, happy, happy days. Link to post Share on other sites
saw119 1 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Saw that one on Facebook earlier. It must be a pretty late photo though as the signage above the entrance clearly reads 'Zodiac at Redgates'. Still a brilliant picture though! Link to post Share on other sites

kevstones 0 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 When I was a kid, Regates was around the corner on The Moor. They had a fantastic train set layout downstairs Link to post Share on other sites

History dude 104 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Some pictures from the Sheffield Star 2018. The model railway is a Hornby Dublo layout so late 1950's early 60's. It looks like the later two rail trains. Link to post Share on other sites
