In my part of the world, there's about 3 LHS between 1hr and 90mins away. They seem to be doing ok, one in particular has expanded into mail order and now occupies far larger premises than when I first walked in about 10 years ago. Another also seems stable, though their stock listings have shrunk - they stock fewer ranges than when they first opened, though they stock a decent variety of those ranges. The third would seem to be on a slightly downward spiral - the owner is always talking about the costs of running the store and buying in new stock, I suspect he may retire in a few years which will probably see the shop close - a pity as he does have a good range of Hornby equipment including some "old stock" items that have been unavailable for many years. <br /> <br />However, all is not lost, as I frequently travel within the UK on holiday, and my first action on arriving at a campsite is to check their copy of "Yellow Pages" to find hobby stores in the area (drives my parents nuts)!
