Although the hobby shop itself is deceptively small, they have a pretty large selection of RC cars and parts, as well as RC aircraft, model cars and model rockets. The facility has multiple tracks including an indoor carpet oval, an outdoor paved oval, and a new outdoor offroad track. They also host a yearly RC hill climb event that may be the only one of its kind.

There are several aisles of model train accessories, scenery, train sets and tracks of several different scale types. The prices seemed in line/a tad higher than most places I've shopped. They had an area with Thomas trains and a small end cap with a Thomas wooden train set kept my youngest occupied while we checked out the rest of their offering. They had a couple aisles of models - ships, military planes, cars etc., rocket sets, RC cars, supplies like paint and tools and some games like Warhammer which I'm not familiar with at all. I enjoyed stepping back in time while I walked around and love it that small operations like this are still around. We bought some Thomas items that were fairly priced and are happy with them.

UPDATE: A friend of mine, who was working on a project…read moreinvolving these parts, had recently been told by Bowser they were in stock, so I called back to ask about them. The person I spoke to was Jerry. I received essentially the same response as before and was told that I would not be receiving them at the listed sale price. (Which is a different story compared to the original no stock and lost package story.) To be clear, my issue isn't that the listed price was apparently incorrect. Mistakes happen, and I understand that businesses have costs and need to make money. I don't expect someone to honor a true pricing mistake, but I do expect to be informed there was one and why my order wasn't sent out. What I do have an issue with is the lack of clear communication. If the parts were mispriced, I think most of us would have understood if Bowser simply explained the mistake and cancelled the affected orders. Instead, orders were cancelled, some customers apparently weren't refunded, and questions about the situation haven't been directly answered. For those of us interested in traction equipment, these parts are fairly specialized and don't have alternative vendors so we'd appreciate straightforward communication about what happened. I'm not asking Bowser to honor an obvious pricing mistake--I'd just like an honest explanation and better communication with the customers affected.

Most importantly, they're honest and keep prices realistic. It's clear that their goal is to keep the hobby alive! I've purchased several locomotives and about a dozen rolling stock. Everything purchased online from their website is exactly as advertised. Additionally, they helped hunt down some things I specifically was in search of. Each item was wrapped and packed individually to ensure it arrived safely with speedy shipping. I guess I'm just flabbergasted and not used to doing business with such fantastic people. Check out their website and YouTube channel.. you won't be disappointed. From what I understand their store front is open again as well. I'll be making the 3 hour trek up there to check it out soon..
