That's good news.
I hope prices and stock get back to pre covid levels in the not too distant future.
I have been amazed at getting a pack of code 55 track at £84 just before Christmas, and seeing prices for the same now at £114.
Please don't tell me this is the 'new normal' as I could see my railway hobby ending very soon  :scowl:

Assuming you mean a box of Flex track, where did you get it for 84 quid???

As I'm overseas I usually buy mine from Hattons and the last lot I bought was 108 quid, for concrete sleepered track.

I would assume honestjudge is referring to wooden sleepered which seems cheaper than concrete sleepered for whatever reason............£12 cheaper, in fact...........

Yes most definitely a box of code 55, wooden sleepers.
Trackshack was the retailer, but I'm sure rails had them for that price at the time of purchase.
