MMR is packed with plenty to put a smile on any model railroaders face! I would write a list and stick to it so you dont break the bank! Seeing the item in person is so much better than a picture. Their selection is very good too! Go!
This is a catalog store meaning it is essentially a warehouse with a cash register in front and you can walk through and look at everything. The only Negative (but not worth deducting a star) is that to get a price on anything you have to look up the item number on your is on your phone at their Web page. To their benefit everybody who works there is a model railroader. Many of them have worked for the railroad or related industries. Nice folks over all in a great location.
I had a great experience with my recent order from Midwest Model Railroad - They had what i needed, at a great price, and the online ordering was very easy. Great communications kept me informed of my orders progress and had a fast delivery with nicely protected and packaged items! I would highly recommend them for all of your Model Railroad needs! I will be certain to order from them again! Thank you!!
Order placed at 1:05PM. Order marked shipped at 1:31PM. Dont go anywhere else if you value great customer service. Prices and selection are good as well. Cant wait to visit the store in person some day.
First off totally impressed on how fast I got my shipments. Very pleased with the quality of product and good selections to choose from. I look forward to continuing business with you all.
Great customer service !I ordered my first locomotive with knuckle style couplers, Ive only been into n scale since May when I inherited a small layout from dad that had Rapido couplers, it arrived not working . I called Stephen and explained the issue and three days later a new one was in the mail box, just in time for guests to see the newest additions to my ever growing layout !thank you
I do appreciate your quick shipping times. I usually have my order in a couple of days after ordering which is sweet. Your prices are excellent an very competitive with other on line hobby stores. I did have the opportunity to visit your store in person there in Independence an I was very impressed at the size of your store an the amount of merchandise you had on hand,I will visit again in the future. Thankyou Jeff Brink
Always gets my order to me in a timely manner after placing the order. Will continue do business there as long as they stay in business.Great doing business with you guys.Thomas Backley
Great customer service. I had a glitch with an order. Correct product was promptly sent out and I was emailed a label to send back mistaken product. No problem. Nice inventory and good pricing. Highly recommended
Excellent service and response even when it is my screw up. Great selection and quick shipping. Store front and mail order selection is better than most.
Huge selection of quality products. Very fast shipping. Definitely my new go to site for ordering stuff!
Getting back in to railroading after over 30 years. After placing my first order with the people at Midwest, I knew I didnt need to shop anywhere else. Shipping to California is maybe 3-4 days, very reasonable. Love the online shopping, I can find everything I need right here!
Great shop! Current innovatory and super fast shipping.
Great place to shop, with a huge selection. I have made all my purchases online, and they get it processed/shipped usually that same day. If not, they send get it out the next day. Great customer service as well!
An outstanding store for model railroaders. Very large selection of N and HO scale. And they ship same or next day for online orders, which is great for me because I live over 2 hrs away.
Midwest delivery was quick and spot on. They even included candy and a carry bag with my order. I will definitely order from them again. Great service!
Great place to purchase model railroad supplies. Fast shipping and always packaged well. Good prices also.
Great place for beginners and experts. Great price and selection
Awesome service! Great prices! Have purchased from many times.
Very pleased with my first order. Very prompt shipping. I will definitely order again. Now my #1 choice for model railroad supplies.
My favorite online hobby store. Great inventory, reasonable shipping rates, even the occasional personal note on my shipping invoice. That probably speaks to the number of orders I placed during the early days of the lockdown. MMMR is the first stop for my N scale model railroad needs.
Fast friendly service. Wonderful people that care about you and can help you out! Highly recommend this model rail road shop!!!
While they have a great selection, even hard to find things, and lots of people seem to have a good experience with them I had just the opposite. I ordered some items and received a box with a packing slip for someone else and their order not mine. I called and emailed but no response. I had to open a PayPal case to get anywhere. They have very poor follow up customer service, so be warned if they make a mistake it won’t be resolved. I’m sorry to say that makes them a very poor company to deal with. Mistakes will happen and I can live with that, I can’t live with not fixing an error. Do not recommend them at all because of my experience.
One of the best online. Great service and inventory. I Will Shop there again.
Awesome store has a super large selection of model railroading needs and accessories to get you started or if youre a long-time enthusiast. Friendly knowledgeable staff willing to help look up information or find prices for products or even an alternative selection
I purchased several model paints from the online store and I received everything in perfect condition and reasonable shipping time. Thanks!
Calling all railfans:I could get lost in here for hours! Youre gonna love this store!!!
Great place for the model railroading hobby
FAST and GREAT PRICESI just placed my first order with Midwest Model RR for a N scale Diorama im making... after comparing their prices to the same stuff on Amazon and Ebay.. I was surprised to find almost everything was way less at Midwest. At least 20% to 40% less for the same static turf, scenery stuff etc.. Even with a $10 shipping charge on my $45 order, it was still less than Amazon Prime..Also,.. I ordered at noon on Thursday.. had a UPS tracking number in less than 2 hours.. Order arrived Saturday Morning (to Texas).. Cant be happier to have ordered from them.. and help support a real Model Railroad enthusiast company.. Already figuring out what will be on my next order...
I’m not a RR guy but my dad is and I loved taking him here. Great selection of models.
Placed an online order and got fast shipping. Excellent place and good prices too! Very happy customer here!
My first visit to Midwest Model was today. I am looking forward to their larger location. Very friendly group of gentlemen that made me feel welcome and were very helpful. Lots of HO products, great selection, good discounted pricing. I am looking forward to going again. And yes, they do repairs, too. Starting in October after their move.
Easy to get in and out of. Stuff is all sorted out by what it is. Looking forward to seeing more of this place.
Large selection of modern N and HO items.
We had stopped at Midwest Model Railroad to just check it out. I am building a new HO layout. This place has everything you would need for model trains at great prices. The employees were very helpful and courteous. I’ll be going back for more stuff soon.
Always found what I was looking for at Midwest Model Railroad for my HO set.
Great service and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend.
Awesome Hobby Store!!!! Always a treat ordering from Midwest.
If you are looking for a place that has great selection and prices then look no further that Midwest Model Railroad. There selection is one of the best and they offer great service and quick affordable shipping. I have purchased everything from turn-outs and track to locomotives and decoder modules.My last order was ordered on late afternoon Friday and I received it in the mail on the following Monday. That kind of service is hard to beat.They get an A++ rating in my book.
Comprehensive selection of items. No model railroad related scenes or layouts in the store just stock. Not necessarily an issue if your just looking to make a purchase.
Midwest Model Railroad wrote the book on how to become the preeminent online supplier of model railroad equipment anywhere across the globe. In all my years of shopping online Ive come to find their massive model railroad inventory, shipping expertise, competitive prices, and outstanding service is superior to all others. As a Canadian, I especially appreciate their exceptional efforts towards shipping orders internationally. Keep on being awesome!
Great place to buy Tamiya model paints.
Fast order filling and shipping.
Ive order from Midwest Model Railroad from time to time and they always get me exactly what I ordered in a timely manor. I have found that the prices are usually pretty good compared to other stores Ive ordered from in the past. I would defiantly recommend them for your model railroading needs.
Nice sized store that is moving soon to a close by and even bigger location. Had most everything my husband was looking for in stock. He really liked the prices on the things he bought. We will be returning.
This is a good place to find items that are sold out at the big stores. Particularly Eastern lines. Website works very well. Moves right along. Real time information is very helpful and saves you time. I recommend visiting and looking around.
One of the best model railroading places I’ve ever been to. Very nice people to help you out, with a nice selection at great prices. Very clean and well organized shelves.
This is an outstanding online hobby store for model railroaders. My orders are shipped the day I put in the order, and arrive quickly. They have a great selection and are always getting new items. A great service to the hobby and great service to individual customers!
I had placed several orders with these guys and have been very satisfied with the service and prices each time. They stock a large number of items and their newsletter often has great deals and specials. Overall Id highly recommend Midwest Model Railroad to anyone looking for great deals and service.
Cool trains store kind of pricey doesnt really have a price on their stuff have H o and N scale
Great prices, fast shipping, nice people to deal with. Excellent customer service! Nice to find a shop that has a local feel you can order from anytime online.
Shop is incredibly well organized. Everything is easy to find, selection is fantastic, and prices are very reasonable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. This shop will be right at the top of my list from now on. Highly recommended!!
Very pleased with their service and their prices are likely as good as youll find. If they cant get it, chances are its currently not being made. If you live near their retail location (as I do), consider yourself lucky. Their in-store inventory is very big.........Otherwise, give them a phone call and use their excellent mail order.
Midwestmodelrr has always been a friendly and reliable business for my hobby needs. They are well stocked and ship very quickly and reasonably. I highly recommend them. I hope to get to their shop in the near future. Thanks David Thurber ( Crooked River and Eastern RR))
Very helpful, had what I needed in stock. Very well organized.
Midwest Model Railroad has given me some of the best deals and service of any online store i have dealt with. My Orders have shipped quickly and arrived in a timely order. I would highly recommend this store.
I have ordered N scale items from Midwest 8 times so far. It is competitively priced with a good selection of products, quick delivery, and shipping costs that are not inflated. The owner also provides useful modeling information on its YouTube site under MidwestModelRR.
Midwest has a very well organized and clean store with great personable staff. Loads of in stock inventory for both HO and N scale products as well as a great selection of scenery items, tools, paints and other. The order online and pickup in store is a great option that they have if you are local to their shop or to shop around in store then buy is great as well. Looking forward to the shops ideas of weekend clinics. I will be re visiting soon.
This is my favorite store for HO products. I live in Indianapolis but am from Overland Park. I was in the store April 2 and its well organized and he and Julie were great hosts. I hope we can all support them so that they can continue providing the wide selection of roads, scales and modeling supplies that we all would like to have.
Ordered a paint online and never received any information via email regarding my order. I reach out to get information and never heard anything. After 8 days my order was just refunded with no information regarding why it was refunded.
Called to order an N-Scale item that was available from one of their vendors (Hiways & Byways) but was not currently carried in the store. They took action to special order the item that I wanted and then shipped it immediately to me. It was a great experience. Thank you.
Orders Shipped out quick with excellent customer service. When I had questions on products or to request specific road numbers on engines they were always helpful. Definitely recommended!!
Very helpful folks. Nicely organized store. Easy to find what youre looking for.
I was very happy to learn of this business which specializes in all aspects of the model railroading hobby. A huge proportion of customers contact online or by phone, and until the pandemic, locals were very welcome to walk-in. Temporarily, orders for the local market may be picked up at the door.
Great people to work with. I have always been able to find what Im looking for. When I buy rolling stock I want multiple cars with different road numbers not just one car like many of the other vendors do. Orders are always shiped in a timely maner. Will remain a customer for a long time.
I recently made my first order. It was quickly processed and delivered. The prices are quite competitive. I tend not to order new products online as I generally like to actually see the product before I buy. I ordered 4 MTH HO boxcars and a scenery manual from Woodland Scenics. Both are companies with which Im familiar. The photos of the cars were sufficient to see the detailing and decide that they were something I wanted to buy. Im glad that they established a bricks and mortar store that is relatively close to where I live I can examine new products first hand. This gives me the best of both worlds. Bob Porter
I have bought about 20 new Walthers Cornerstone structures all over last couple months for my new Ho scale layout. Fast shipping and well packaged and good prices. Thanks
I had no problem finding what I wanted. Shipping was very fast and everything came well packed.
I have ordered a few times and found the prices to be reasonable. What I was most impressed with was the shipping costs. They were much lower than other shops. Delivery was quick too. Overall....quite pleased.
The people here are very friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful. This is my new go to for my HO scale needs. Great prices and a nice selection to choose from.
This is my Go To store for my HO trains! This is the first place I look for a product. They have better prices than the Well known competitors. Items ship out within 1 business day. And most importantly...REAL TIME INVENTORY! If it is listed, then they have it. Too bad I dont live closer or I would pick up my stuff at their store.
Great Model Railroad supplier! Carry lots of items. Ships fast. My Main N Scale Supplier.
If you are a model train enthusiast or know someone who is this is a great place to visit. They were very helpful when I went there to buy a train set for my grandson.
Great Hobby Shop online, great prices, shipped items ordered very fast, and packed with care to avoid damages. Had a great experience and highly recommend this seller.
Excellent product selection for building and expanding our HO scale layout. Wonderful support from a terrific staff.
What find i made with midwest railroad prices cant be beat unless someone has big sale.shipping is quick prices so low.better than ebay.keep up good work. 10 starsrich
Ive only been a customer for about a year or so with MMR and Ive been happy with them on all accounts. I watched them transition to a new location some time ago and during that time when I had an order in I thought theyd slow down or the orders might be picked wrong by accident. Well, never missing a beat, they did a great job with that order during their transition, truly excelling with their customer service. MMR has been my go to model railroad store ever since, as I know from that transition/move event it speaks to me how organized and dedicated they are in running their business. I usually try to save up on the items to order rather than order one or two at a time, so my orders typically are not frequent, but rather in larger quantities or more items. It is also really beneficial to know they usually have many of the items I am looking for without having to go to another store or website, while maintaining competitive prices. Kudos to MMR! Highball!
Nice people. Decent selection. Good prices.
I placed an order through their website. It arrived quickly and well packaged. I wont hesitate to order from them again in the future.
I had mistakenly ordered the wrong style turnout and within a day of hearing this Midwest Model Railroad had the correct ones shipped out with a return label for my mistake. Serious points for costumer service and I will absolutely continue to purchase my supplies here.
Great selection, helpful & knowledgeable personnel!!
Even without the 10% discount Midwest Model RR Hobby is by the best priced, the best hobby shop for doing business.
Great place to shop for trains!! Super friendly staff
Great store to order from or visit in person. Clean, well organized and the Atwoods are good honest people to deal with.
Very friendly, helpful staff and shelves you dont have to sit on the floor to browse. The only shop on the east end of town, and we are lucky its such a good one
Have been a mail-order customer for a couple of years -- always good selection and prices, with quick service. Visited the new store last week - nice to see another train store in the Kansas City area.
Very nice store. Very easy to find things. Excellent staff.
These guys are awesome!! I have only done internet purchases but they are very quick shippers and always have what I need at VERY competitive prices!!
This is a neat place. It is set up like a stock room and the staff was very helpful!!!
Outstanding service, and very fast shipping, every time I have bought from them.
Recent new customer and am very pleased with Midwest Model RR company. If truth be told my first order did not go without any glitches, specifically, the shipment did not arrive as ordered. However a quick email to the company and within short order all was remedied. To my way of thinking this is a sign of a reputable company to do business with. Given enough time something will go wrong or something will breakdown regardless of the company or manufacture. What matters at that point is how the company reacts to the situation and goes about making it right by the customer. Midwest came through this situation with flying colors in my bookTheir prices are very competitive/ they proccess orders extremely fast and the shipping is priority via USPS. For me living in Chicagoland that means two days shipping I ordered on a Tuesday morning and received the goods in Thursdays mail of that week.I have so far enjoyed my shopping experience with them and plan on continuing doing so in the future. They are a good company to deal with and go a long way in meeting the needs of the model rr communityMike
Prices are very reasonable and they ship quickly. Also prompt in response to questions. David
Great helpful Staff awsome shipping most times the order goes out same day. Never have I had an issue with an online order or delivery
Great Prices Great customer service and Great website if they dont have it ..they can get it. I live in peoria Il. Thank you
Delivery is fast. Prices are good enough to ship to Canada, with exchange, and still save.
Great prices and fast shipping great sale items
This place is awesome!!! Great and knowledgeable friendly service AAA
Fast delivery. Always exactly as promised.
