About Us

Hello from all of us here at Kernow Model Rail Centre - both teams in Camborne & Guildford!

Most important info first - where you can find us!

We have a branch in CAMBORNE on 98A Trelowarren Street, Camborne, Cornwall, TR14 8AN and in GUILDFORD 75B Stoke Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU1 4HT.

It all started when KMRC Camborne opened its doors in September 2002. Our team then grew when we branched out with our second shop, KMRC Guildford, in May 2019!

Guildford Branch

At the end of 2020 we expanded again with the opening of a new warehouse near Camborne to handle the growing mail order side of the business. The warehouse is solely for the mail order operation and increased stock holding and is not be open to the public.

We look forward to giving you a warm welcome at both our traditional branches in Camborne and Guildford, feel free to come and browse our wide range of stock, and our experienced team are available for help and advice.
