John,

Not sure about West london, but if you are willing to Tube it to the east there is 4D Modelshop (www.modelshop.co.uk) that is located under some railway arches on Leman St (walkable from Tower Hill, just). I believe they also do web orders...

(I get mine from a local shop in Romford, or at various modelling events like the bigger train shows...)

Tom

Hi John,
Welcome aboard. There's a Hobby Craft in Greenford, pretty near the tube if you need it, am not a big fan bt may be worth a punt.
Regards, Paul
