It's a great local gem with a lot of history. Very convenient for me. They have a good variety of items for the more obscure scales. They are a bit on the pricey side though if you're looking for new HO or N stuff, but there are some more reasonable items like special kid's train t-shirts and some used stuff can be a bargain if you know where to look. Props and buildings are on par with market prices. Staff is friendly. They have a nice ho scale setup for the kids.

Great store. Repaired my Walthers Proto SP E9A. They don't have a huge collection, but it is a pretty good one, with lots of track. They also have a pretty nice model layout.

Prices higher then most train stores I've been to and they mostly have HO scale trains, tracks and accessories. The one person in the store did not offer any assistance and kept to himself. Arnie's Train store in Westminster has lower prices and the people are more helpful.

Yes. Easy parking out front as the nearby restaurants were still closed a few weeks ago when I was there.
