Does anybody here run ACE Trains? Any feedback on them?

Their website is quite nice, well laid out and functions well on the mobile.

I know that @roy mentions them briefly in his Dream City Railway thread, but there's not much more said about them.

Rails of Sheffield have several used listings:

Just curious!

Retro tinplate style. Designed for shed or garden layouts with long runs and an emphasis on operation and sheer atmosphere over detail. Classic and most enjoyable stuff, but a world away from Finescale.

They tend to do short runs of popular prototypes, and outsource the production to ETS Trains, a Czech outfit. They do coarse scale 0 gauge, mainly retro tinplate with an enamel finish.
