Quaint little dusty train shop with plenty of new and used inventory and several running train layouts to boot. They have locomotives, cars, accessories, and track in all gauges. Dale is knowledgeable, kind, and answers questions with thorough explanations. Very little parking in the street, but plenty behind the store where you can enter through the back door. Sweet staff assistant loves to chat and can help you with any questions. While a little disorganized, its still very much worth the trip.
What a fun place to visit. They have a large selection of trains and items. I have a ZW transformer that belonged to my grandfather. They helped me test it and validate that it was still safe to use. Didnt even charge me. The owner was happy to share ideas and plans for how to set up my trains.I will definitely be back any chance I get. The museum in back was amazing. So many rare trains that you never see and beautiful layouts.
Confused by the other reviews. Maybe the actual owners werent the ones I dealt with. The selection was really good, which is why it gets 3 stars for me. The people I interacted with didnt seem interested in selling anything and my best guess is that they were somewhat medicated. I might give it another try in a few months.
The store is amazing with many sizes and types of trains. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful.
GREAT PLACE TO SHOP. ANYONE WHO ENJOYS MODEL TRAINS CAN FIND WHAT THEY NEED HERE.. OR THE MANAGER CAN ORDER IT AND SHIP IT TO YOUR HOME. INCLUDING HARD TO FIND STUFF. . THEY ARE VERY ACKNOWLEDGABLE.
Love it! Great selection of model trains and the sales people either have what you are looking for, or can find it for you.Well, maybe I am a wee bit prejudiced because our son works there and Dale is a longtime friend.Our area in Surprise, AZ doesnt have anything to match it, which is a shame because this area is loaded with Model Train Clubs!
Dale is a great train guy. Fixed an HO locomotive for another customer while I was looking at some of his drool over collection. Bought some new O gauge track and set my train sliding smoothly over fresh rails. Thank you! Will definitely be doing more business at this store.
Found everything we could imagine we needed or wanted. Staff was very helpful. Great resource.
Sign on door says masks and distancing required to enter. Saw 5 customers without masks. They weren’t kicked out or told to put on a mask. No wonder cases are so high
Shop owner is awesome and knowledgeable. Small business with a great selection and heart. Support small/local!!!!
They are so helpful! We get something for my dad every Christmas and they have so much selection and awesome suggestions.
Great place for electric trains. Take some time to check out the museum in the back.
It is amazing you can find what you need easily a bit pricey but we found what we needed really easily really fun place
A very small store, but everything you need for your model train hobby. Knowledgeable staff.
Went today with my autistic client and the owner turned on all of his model trains ( I think for us)So attentive. it was so fun. Cool Shop
Great Place for all sorts of model trains.. and theyre Museum of trains they are putting together a spectacular..!
My son and I love this shop! My son is 9 and has autism. He loves trains. I wasnt sure if they carried trains for youth but they have a wonderful selection of Thomas the Tank Engine, Chuggington, etc. I adore the owners and their daughter who, thanks to their amazing customer service and good old fashioned kindness, have become friends. You need to visit this shop!
Very great store. Tons of memories going back to when I had my own train as a kid. Lots of variety and they have great knowledge to help you get started.
Great service, really friendly people. The knew their trains and had a great selections.
This is an awesome family oriented store. Always willing to help and there are layaway options available.
If you like trains this is the place to go
Love this place, my Dad always took me there as a kid when we needed to get his train worked on.
Great selection. However, the place reeked of cigarette smoke. Also, the man who was there was on the phone the whole time I was there, and he was extremely rude to an older gentleman who came in.
Interesting, eclectic mix of items. Interesting selection of items. Many older Athearn Blue Box items to look at if they are your thing. What was surprising was the fact that I was able to find a missing part for one of my engines. Long out of production but there was the part all sealed and factory new! If I would habe had more time I probably would have found lots of other treasures. My only complaint, all used items were way over priced, youd be better off looking on e-bay for better bargains. Nice freindly staff, made the visit well worth a stop. And yes, like another commenter, it was a pretty stinky musty place. So if you are the leadt bit sensitive to your environs, you may want to consider wearing a better quality dist mask or maybe even call ahead to see if they have what you are looking for. Me personally, I would go back and look again, he may have some real rarities, likeand Floquil paint, long out of production parts and whatever else you are searching for. Living in Mesquite NV, it was nice to see a family owned hobby shop. I gave it a four just due to stink, otherwise great place to go see. However, keep in mind used prices are way high and everything new is full retail. They have N scale, HO and a good selection of Lionel and related products. Enjoy!
Great little train store. Good service, knowledgeable, great selection.
The best store of its kind in the u.s. . awesome
Good selection of trains. Knowledgeable about their products and what would be age appropriate.
Cool store. Not just trains. Models, rockets, and of course trains. Fun!
Dale is so knowledgeable and so helpful. Fun store to just look and dream, good prices and a ton of merchandise.
The store may not be fancy, but great collection and can get what you want
I love all the trains that was there
Great place to get your model railroading needs. Theyll even ship to your location.
My son loves this place.
Very friendly staff. Fun train shop to browse around, I always find something to get.
I was looking for a place that has a great selection of trains and then i got bored and started playing with them
Great place and its awesome theres a place to repair trains and I should be lucky🖒☺😁
Its a bit pricy but they have a lot of good ideas and the staff is friendly they also have a large selection of different trains there.
The staff here are great and very helpful. Great place for buying trains and train supplies.
No doubt has the best selection of trains in the Ogden area. However what I wanted Thomas ho where all marked at MSRP. So edward was $112 were I could buy him on Amazon for $71. I suggest trying the train shoppe in slc or train stop in Orem for sale price train items.
Great customer service.
Fun place, lots of cool stuff.. :)
Has a good collection of trains from which to choose.
Nice people to do business with.
Best train hobby store around!
My MTH engine broke down after a derail and Del was kind enough to loan me one of his own engines tell mine gets fixed... Cant get that service anywhere else.
My dad bought a FrontRunner diesel from there and the headlights would not work, so he takes it back about two weeks later and charged my about 50 dollars and still no headlights and my dad was pretty upset about it.
Friendly staff that love to help
Over priced used trainsCarries everything you would need to start model railroading though
Cool store
