walkingthedog Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Why did you think that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I am sure somebody who owns a model shop told me that, or I read it on the Hornby website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Never believe anything people in model shops tell you. We have learned on here that they are famous for giving duff Information. You may have read on here they planned to close it and open a new one in Ramsgate but it never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I don't believe all of them, but the owners of the model shops I go to, when I am near by, who I am friends with, I believe what they tell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 The reason I said that Jacob is because on here people often say 'my man at the model shop said...........' and what they said is absolute rubbish. Not always but fairly often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 @howbiman Good point there. Hornby wouldn't have a page about it, if it has closed down. @Sarahagain That must have been what I was told at the model shop, that Hornby Hobbies are moving the Visitor Centre to Ramsgate. I didn't know that the plans have been scrapped though, so thank you for that. Probably best that the Visitor Centre stays where it is though. That was were it all started in that building and that is where the history should stay. @walkingthedog Very funny, WTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
