It is with great regret that I can inform you of the closure of Linesdie delights.
As they were telling everyone at the Llanfair show, they are no longer accepting any orders off the website and no longer attending any shows.
They are planning on selling off the last of thier kits in stock and then closing down the buildings.
This is mainly to do with health problems with the companys owner.
They did say they would try to help out EXISTING customers with odd kits that they may require.
they also mentioned that they didn't want to sell the company on as they didnt want the high quality that they served to be lost.
I personally feel it is a shame and will miss thier stand at shows and thier shop completely. It wasnt only useful for lineside buildings but for electronics and loco accessories.

When I spoke to them, they implied that they would deal with letter, email or phone orders but wouldn't be doing shows or the online shop - you might also have to wait a bit longer for orders to be filled.

...from me, but I heard it from elsewhere so I don't know if it's true.
I'm sad about Lineside, my dad fancied having a go at a couple of building kits over winter... I suppose we can still order by phone. Their range of things where great, I used to buy a lot of loco accessories from them, and being online was great (phoneing companies in business hours is hard for me due to school)...
