First time visitor and will be back. Small parking lot, but plenty of on street parking. We went…read moreon a Saturday when their train repair guy was in. The guy was super knowledgeable, friendly, reasonable on pricing and had the patience of a Saint! The entire staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. The place was steady busy the entire two hours we were there. The aisles were packed full of rolling stock and glass cases displayed new/used locomotives for most gauges. Train sets priced from around $120 up to over $400. It was so much fun walking up and down each aisle with my four year old and hearing him talk about every item. Tracks, scenery, models, couplers, tools, styrene sheets, smoke, oil, glue, magazines, paint, and brands like Thomas & Friends, Atlas, Rapido, Lionel, Bowser, Walthers, Athearn, Bachmann. They have a nice selection of Polar Express items too and some antique items. My son enjoyed watching the trains on their small layout and before you know it two hours had passed, but we had such a great time together. What a great retail experience. Thanks so much guys, we will definitely be returning!

I have visited this hobby shop more than any other for the past 30 years. It has stuck tenaciously…read moreto its downtown Reading location, which is both admirable and somewhat concerning. I suspect if it moved to the suburbs it would have more patronage, more room and could carry a broader range of supplies It generally has what I need, which is N scale model train supplies. As with most bricks and mortar hobby shops I have visited, the selection consists of the most obvious ready to run equipment, without the depth and breath of specialty goods available online. Prices are fair, without the steep discounts seen online, but without gouging. It seems to have a large selection of radio control airplanes, vehicles etc., and a good selection of plastic models. The owners are very knowledgeable however in all fields of the various hobbies.

So many wonderful things!!! Loved it. Very friendly and helpful staff. Sister visiting got many…read moreitems!

Really great hobby shop for all things trains. My father recently got my girls a Lionel train set…read morefor Christmas so we stopped in here to see what other options were available to add to our new set. They have an amazing selection of trains, including all different gauges, also miniature buildings, animals, people and everything else for your trains set. We didn't have an opportunity to stay too long so I'll be back to take a more in depth look in the near future. The staff are very helpful and super knowledgeable so come with questions and leave with answers. They also have a display with several trains set up with buttons for people to try to see what lights up or makes sound. The trains were not moving while we were there and they were kind of busy in the lead up to Christmas so we didn't ask to have them running, but I'm sure they would have turned them on if we had asked.

I figured I'd research this place and see how far they are to just go and pick it up. Turns out they were only an hour away and with the pics i found i definitely had to take my boys there because it looked amazing! We pull up, get out and were amazed by the amount of RC CARS they had insisde. The drift track on the 2nd floor looks fun, if only i had a drift car! The dirt track outside looks fun but needs maintenance. The service from the people there was cool and i and my boys got what we wanted with the friendly help of the smart lady there. Thanks for your store and service. For only $5 an hour you can also drive the dirt track. We definitely will be back !
