Train of Thought Emporium & Gallery

It's not so much a shop as an experience. I could have spent a couple of days there. Or taken a chair, sat in the corner, and never left. It's an absolute gem. Be prepared to 'pop in' and then emerge several hours later. Really friendly bloke running the place who made me feel welcome. Unique in Worthing.

It was a blustery autumn day when I first stumbled upon this quaint shop nestled in the heart of Worthing. The shop's sign, boldly emblazoned with the words "Train of Thought," immediately caught my eye, drawing me closer to its warm, inviting atmosphere. Upon entering the shop, I was immediately struck by its delightful ambiance, rich with the fragrance of vintage vinyl and the sounds of classic rock and roll. The shopkeeper, a kindly old man with a twinkle in his eye, greeted me warmly, his British accent thick with charm and character. As I perused the shelves, my eyes alighted upon countless treasures, each one more alluring than the last. From X-ray Spex albums to Bowie classics, the shop boasted an impressive collection, each vinyl in immaculate condition, waiting to be discovered by a lucky new owner. But it wasn't just the shop's collection that captivated me; it was the vibrant, bustling energy of its patrons, each one eager to discover a new gem, eager to share their passion for music with others who shared their interests. As I made my way to the counter, eagerly clutching my treasure trove of vinyl, the shopkeeper beamed at me, "And what do we have here, my friend?" I could only smile, feeling the warmth of the shop and its patrons enveloping me like a welcome embrace. For in Train of Thought, I had found not just a record shop, but a community, a gathering place for those who lived and breathed the magic of music. And in that moment, I felt truly at home.

Great assortment of records books cd's dvd's musical instruments and art. Friendly people too! Now takes card and cash.

It's got guitars, amps, t-shirts, memorabilia, odd things, plus LOTS a rekkids. Also art. Good prices. A hidden away Worthing treasure trove. AND great friendly staff. Sometimes they put on live music! Pop in, have a browse, keep going back to see what's new.

This place is constantly evolving. Its latest incarnation is a full on record and music shop with second hand vinyl gems and must haves alongside reasonably priced cds, books and even blank tapes. Also a constant turn over of guitars and small amps. Always something to go home with.
