At Margot’s Books, we specialise in second-hand books for railway lovers, collectors, and readers with curious taste. Every book we sell is pre-owned. Some are gently used, some are rare or out of print, and all have been chosen with care.

Our main focus is on railways. You’ll find books about steam trains, diesel and electric locomotives, modern rail operations, and railway modelling. Whether you are looking for a technical guide, a company history, or something to spark nostalgia, you are in the right place.

We also stock a thoughtful range of children’s books, along with a changing mix of titles that don’t fit into railway themes. These include cookbooks, art books, memoirs, and the occasional oddity that deserves a second home.

Every order is packed with care using recycled packaging where possible. We ship worldwide and aim to offer the kind of experience that feels personal, not automated.

Thanks for stopping by. Take your time, enjoy browsing, and let the right book find you.
