Mike is a nice enough guy. Very friendly and it appears that he's quite passionate about the hobby. Good selection of trains... but the problem is that very few are displayed or listed for sale. You can see totes full of engines and rolling stock tucked away and it appears he hasn't done anything with them for a long time. The store is very unorganized and it's tough even for him to find things. Finally, I'm all for supporting local business and understand that items will cost more. His prices are a little overkill, especially for used engines. I've paid 3 different prices for the same item on 3 different occasions within weeks of each other. Each time it cost a little more.
Don't get me wrong. They have boxes and boxes of what appears to be new old inventory. You could probably find a few cool items if you took the time to skim over the stacks of boxes... and if you can afford them. read more
