We have been tidying up the shop in preparation for the Easter Rally and our events this year. The latest products in stock include drinks from Kendal Cordials, a range of Cumbria / Lake District related titles from Countryside Books and steam / diesel DVD's from Transport Video Publishing.
Our supplies of award-winning homemade relishes, pickles and preserves from Hawkshead Relish have proved very popular and we are about to order in our Spring supplies. If you have a favourite Hawkeshead Relish which you would like to see in the shop, please let us know and we will endevour to stock it.
We also stock small (125ml) tubs of delicious English Lakes Luxury Ice Cream and once the weather has improved, we will order some more in.

BOOK SIGNING
To mark the opening of our new Retail Outlet, the Rev. Alan Cliff, author of the award winning 'Jack the Station Cat' books, undertook a book signing session for us at KSE on Saturday 22nd November 2008 (10.30 - 12.30). 'Jack' himself was also present and a record number of 'Jack' books were sold during the session. Further details about 'Jack' and his friends can be found on their website.
At the end of this page, there is an album of photographs showing the work undertaken on the new shop. This has been made possible by a grant from Cumbria County Council's 'Community Regeneration Fund' and a lot of hard work by our volunteers and Contractors.
SALES ITEMS
We stock a wide range of 'Thomas the Tank Engine', 'Ivor the Engine' and 'Jack the Station Cat' merchandise for our younger customers. The shop also has an excellent selection of new and second-hand books. We supply limited edition prints of Kirkby Stephen East by John Robinson and the 76084 Locomotive Company which are available unframed or framed (to order).
We have a wide range of Ivor the Engine Merchandise including adult sized T-shirts (£5-00 gift boxed) and a range of Ivor mugs (£4-95), DVD's and books all of which will make ideal presents.
