This is the best place I have found in Florida for supplies for my Model Railroad. The service and friendliness was 100% they had everything I needed and now I go here because of the staff and they have an N scale layout and HO scale layout that is operational. If your a model railroad enthusiasts this is the place

Full service local model train shop. All scales available. Stop in and say hi, see the trains running and share your stories with the staff. Very friendly. Stop in and visit. AC is cold!

I have a Lionel 381EBild a Loco - if it's a reproduction in good shape, how much do they go for.

Good morning Barbara. I have no idea what a true value would be. There are several variations of the 381E. If it is all original and in good shape, they are worth anywhere from $1500 to 3000 depending on the version. You say its a reproduction. Is it Lionel or MTH? Either way, I'm not sure what the current value is. Wish I could be of more help. Sincerely, Kelly Weeks GCMRR

Yes, but should be in good condition

How many model train displays do you have set up? I love choo-choo trains! :-)

On the left side of the store they have a HO multi track level, almost full depth of the store . The right entry of store is a N gauge table top display and on the same side towards the back is the lionel display under construction.

I live in Iowa where we have basements to build model railroads in. In the near future I plan on moving to the Sarasota area and am looking at homes. Unfortunately homes in the area don't have basements. Where do modelers build their layouts? Mike O

Mine is in the corner of my garage in Venice. It is an oversized two car. Or you could just designate one room for it
