There’s always something new to discover in TMC pre-owned with new listings live daily.

From model railway locomotives and rolling stock to plastic kits, die-cast models and modelling accessories, our pre-owned range changes every day – and you never quite know what might arrive next.

We add new pre-owned listings to our website every day at 17:00, giving modellers and collectors a fresh selection to explore five days a week.

Whether you’re searching for something specific or simply enjoy seeing what turns up, make 17:00 your time to check TMC pre-owned. Why not do as others and bookmark our pre-owned page and set a daily timer on your smart-phone to get a chance to secure the best listings first!

New models every day

There’s no waiting for one big monthly stock drop at TMC. Newly listed pre-owned items go live at 17:00 every single day, including weekends!

Our selection covers much more than model railways. Alongside locomotives, coaches, wagons and railway accessories, you’ll regularly find pre-owned plastic kits, die-cast models and a wide variety of modelling accessories.

Explore the latest listings, here.

One evening you might find a locomotive you missed when it was first released. The next could bring a discontinued plastic kit, a collectable die-cast model or an unused accessory you’d like for much less than new.

And, because every pre-owned item is individual, once it’s sold, we may not have another.

Buy with confidence

Condition is one of the biggest considerations when buying pre-owned, particularly online. We want you to know as much as possible about the item you’re purchasing before it arrives.

That’s why every pre-owned model is inspected by our pre-owned team before being offered for sale.

Where applicable, operational models are also tested, with any potential running issues we identify noted in the listing. We inspect models for cosmetic imperfections, damage, missing or loose components and other points we believe a prospective buyer should know about.

We don’t stop at the model, either. Boxes and packaging are also inspected, with noteworthy wear or damage highlighted where appropriate.

Our aim is simple: clear, transparent listings that help you make an informed purchase.

Plastic kits, die-cast & more

For kit builders, our pre-owned plastic kits provide an ever-changing source of potential projects, including older and discontinued releases. Collectors can browse our regularly changing die-cast selection, while modelling accessories and other items add even more variety to each day's arrivals.

It means there’s a good reason to check back even when you’re not searching for anything in particular.

Quality models to sell? We want to hear from you!

Of course, a constantly changing pre-owned selection needs a regular supply of quality models – and we’re always looking to buy.
