Invicta history.

 

Myself and Vernon opened Invicta model rail in April 2013. Prior to this, we both had a long history in the model and hobby world. Starting back to the days of Beatties of London Ltd (Lewisham branch) and then via Modelzone, finally finishing up at the Signal Box (Rochester).

 

We built our new business up slowly and steadily over the years, both trading and also promoting the shop at model railway exhibitions all over the U.K. We backed this up with old school in-store customer service combined with the latest internet based worldwide mail order service.

 

Sadly Vernon became ill in 2017 and after a long battle he passed away in early 2020. I decided to keep the business going and Invicta model rail has continued to go from strength to strength. After the Covid pandemic and subsequent lock down, I have started to rebuild the business with help and support from friends and family, culminating in 2021 with the purchase of the building and thus securing the future of Invicta.

 

As a first step, we are now in a position to open a dedicated N gauge model railway and transport book showroom within our premises at 130 Station Rd, Sidcup DA15 7AB - Google Maps

 

 

Before his illness this had always been Vernon’s dream, turning  one of our storage rooms into increased retail area allowing an expansion of ranges and thus increasing the range of products available to our customers. It is our ambition to expand and maximise the building to its full potential over the coming months and years and to provide a one stop shop for model railway enthusiasts both young and old, experienced or beginners

 

We look forward to welcoming customers, old and new, to our special weekend.

A word of thanks for the willingness of the lady to go that exta mile. I purchased 4 new crimson BR Bachmann Thompson coaches from her stand at Statfold on Saturday but needed another 2nd which is the one there’s been a little confusion over concerning the correct running number. If I would ring Monday morning,she would check her remaining stock to ensure 34-387 was correct. I was promised free postal delivery should I choose to buy. All was indeed well and it arrived at midday in secure order.  You can’t do better than that,can you ?

A little confused when this is the Invicta opens it's N gauge space thread - thought I'd missed maroon Thompsons, alas yours are the big brother versions.
