While the store itself is a bit messy you find pretty quickly that it only adds to the charm of the place. This is an old school hobby shop with a massive selection of just about everything and it's filled with people who are passionate about their respective interests. If you are into RC vehicles, there is both an outdoor and indoor track on site that you can access for only $5, and that's for the whole day. If you patronize your local mom & pop shops for the tactile experience and knowledgeable customer service then this is absolutely the place for you. Miles and miles above it's biggest competitor in the area.

I've never rated a hobbie shop, but this place seemed really neat. It's located right in the…read moredowntown and was walkable from the Colebrookdale railroad. 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. Give these guys a look if your in the area and support small businesses!

I was able to find only one vest & the other was out of stock so I waited about a week for it to come in. This place is big on remote controlled cars.

Took away one star because of how expensive this place is & because I felt pressure to buy more then what I had gone in there for.
