Great News For Railroad Book Lovers

Posted at: December 12, 2010
Related Topic(s): Our Store

We have recently undertaken a complete re-categorisation of our railroad book section.

After much deliberation we decided that books would best be categorised based on country and where possibly, also by motivation - steam, diesel, electric, etc.

We also tied into our existing category for model railroading and added a link to this category within the railroads section.

We would love to know what you think about the new system. Please leave your comments here.

Our Store Now Has a New Checkout System

Posted at: December 5, 2010

This weekend we have introduced a new single page checkout system to our website.

Single page checkouts are becoming more popular due to their simplicity and speed of checkout.

Our previous checkout had a page for billing details, another for shipping details, then a payment details page, and finally an order confirmation page.

Now there is just one page, with shipping, billing and payment details all on one form. There is also a summary of the order, with links to return to the site to change items or quantities, a pop-up currency converter, and details on how to contact us or get help or information.

We have long resisted a change to the more common checkout style that requires you to register and log in to order. We usually find these a bit of a pain to use and expect many other people do to. Our new system still does not require any form of registration.

We hope you find our new checkout system a pleasure to use and we welcome your feedback.
