Getting Started in Model Railroading:  

 

 

Model railroading is a hobby for all seasons. No matter what the weather you can enjoy this hobby from the comfort of your own home. A train layout can be small enough to fit on a coffee table or have been known to consume an entire basement.

The most popular sizes are N gauge, HO gauge and O gauge. N gauge is the smaller of the scales we support with a typical layout size of 2 feet by 4 feet. HO gauge is the most popular with an average layout of 4 feet by 8 feet. O gauge is most commonly referred to as Lionel size. A typical size layout for this gauge ranges from 4 feet by 8 feet to as large as in entire room.

 

 

So whether you want a train to go around the tree at X-mas time, or you want to recreate a section of America in miniature, our train department has complete sets and all the components and accessories required for most layout.

You can create your own city using accessories like the General Store depicted here. Come see our full selection of O,HO, & N scale trains and accessories.
