This is a pretty cool store for older style electric trains. Some cool vintage like stuff in this store. The reason I only give it 3 stars is because of an interaction I had with an employee involving my son. Basically he accused me or my son of stealing the trains off the toddler train table they have in the store for kids to play with. Let me assure u I would never condone theft from my son from a store. But the reason my son threw a fit was because he wanted to stay and play, not because he wanted a train. He has hundreds of trains. When I explained this to the employee... he simply told me 3 or 4 more times my son couldn't take any trains (as if I didn't hear the first time) and told me other kids were stealing trains... and actually followed me out the store and onto the sidewalk and up 2 stores like I was a common criminal. My son had no trains in his hands when this employee approached me. Matter of fact I was holding my son who was flailing and kicking and screaming cause he wanted to stay and we were 3 feet away from the play table when this rude assuming employee approached us and let me tell u I have never felt so embarrassed the way he spoke to us and treated us, and never been so offended in my life. This rude employee didn't even apologize to us for accusing us of stealing trains but actually accused us more or insinuated more my son was going to take trains. How incredibly rude and assuming and offensive. I will never bring my son back to this store or even myself step foot in this store again. And the last thing I would ever do is offer them my money. If my son had trains in his hands and we were headed for the door id understand being approached. But my son throwing a fit because he wanted to stay in what he thought was the coolest place in the world.. with zero trains in his hands... being carried by me and heading for the door... is not a reason to accuse someone and embarrass them in front of other employees and customers.

Visited for the first time on 10/5/2019. I really enjoyed the shop. There is a great selection of old and new, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Steve, the owner, was very generous and down-to-earth. I really enjoyed my stay and look forward to future visits. This is what a model train shop should be!

That, I dont know. Call and ask them. They are super helpful no matter what your train knowledge level. We have bought O and HO track and trains there. They also have train magazines, books, miniatures for train scenes.
