hey guys... once upon a time, there was a model railway shop in 1 utama which sells train models, diorama materials and some plastic kits.... but the shop has closed down some time ago. it's a pity coz i used to go there to get some humbrol paints and ground scatter/roll.

can anybody remeber the shop name? has it been relocated somewhere else?

No styrene sheets Jimbo but I wonder how old is their Humbrol collection.

The haze is really bad right now. Please stay indoors and drink lots of water. So far, Subang and Shah Alam are the worst affected areas.
