Bring Your Model Railway to Life with These Rather Splendid Skip Models
Right, so here's the thing. You've got your model railway layout looking rather marvellous, but it's missing that certain je ne sais quoi. A bit too tidy, perhaps. Too polished. What you need are a couple of these 8 yard skips to add a touch of everyday realism and, well, a spot of industrial character. Think of them as the scruffy but charming friend who makes everyone else look a bit better.
Why Choose Our 8 Yard Skip Models
Authentic Detail: Crafted with proper attention to scale and proportion, these skips bring genuine character to your N scale layout without demanding you be some sort of master craftsperson to get them looking fabulous.
Your Creative Canvas: Supplied unpainted and unassembled, these rather good models are begging for your own artistic touch. Paint them to match your railway's personality. Enamel or acrylic paint works beautifully.
Quality That Shows: 3D printed in resin with genuine care for detail. Minor sanding and filling may be required, but that's rather part of the fun, isn't it.
Collector-Grade Craftsmanship: These are proper models for grown-up enthusiasts. Two models per pack means you can create lovely little vignettes across your layout.

THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
