Come out and enjoy the following:

  • Estate and consignment items – this will be laid out in one of the bays of the garage next door due to the space it takes up

  • a customer appreciation draw
  • hot drinks and goodies

Grey Central Railway Club Model Train Show—This Saturday September 15, 2018

With the onset of fall comes the train shows and this weekend there is one close to all of our customers that are in the Grey/Bruce Area. The Grey Central Railway Club will be hosting their Annual Open House and Train Show this Saturday, September 15, 2018 from 10am to 4pm. It is located at the Participation Lodge five minutes east of Holland Centre.

For those that do not want to drive down to the cities where the majority of the shows are happening this is a great way to take in a train show close to home.

This event will feature the Grey Central Railway Layout operating, a few additional layouts are usually brought in for the event, and a selection of vendors selling railway items and supplies.

So come on out and support a local train show.

Used Area Expansion

Over the summer we have been expanding our operations to include a dedicated area that supports estates and consignments.  While this first started as something that we were just going to run through the summer months, we have now decided to continue on with it year round.

Our used area is being redesigned as a permanent location in one of the big bays of the garage located next to the store.  Hours for the used area are slightly different than the store, operating Sat and Sun from 11am to 4:30pm.

As time goes on we hope to have some of this stock also added to our website.

Custom Building and Repair Services Available

With fall coming again and train season firing up many are starting to find items that need repair.  We can help with those items that are not running to their full potential.  We offer repair and decoder installing services.  Repairs can be dropped off or shipped in as well.

We are now offering custom structure building services, too.  If you have a building that you wish custom built feel free to let us know and there is a good chance it can be scratch built for you.  It does not need to be a custom structure either.  If you have a structure kit you would like built that is something that can also be done.  Many people feel they are not good at structure building, this is the way you can get that structure you want for your layout.

The Nottawasaga Model Railway Auction is Saturday, October 28, 2018 in Stayner, ON.

20th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale—May 12 2018

The 20th annual Model Railroad Garage sale is coming up fast. Mark May 12th on your calendar as you will not want to miss this wonderful event. It is a terrific way for those just starting in the hobby to find some items, meet others in the hobby, gain ideas, and share in discussions. Many have also found that sought after treasure on someone’s table that was just what they needed to bring some life to their own layout.

This event is hosted FREE of charge for both vendors and customers. It is put on as a modellers-for-modellers day to help spread the word that Model Railroading is a fun and fulfilling hobby for all ages. While this event only lasts 4 hours, many hours are spent on the planning and set up of the event. As long as the interest to attend is strong we will continue to put this event on. It runs from 8am - noon with vendors allowed to start setting up as early as 6:30am.

Many have already signed up to be vendors, and spaces are filling up quickly. We will be taking reservations for vendors until May 2nd, so if you are wishing to attend this year as a vendor please let us know ASAP.

Also this year, we will again be having the community table. For those that are not familiar with how the table works, it is a way for people to bring just a few things and leave them for sale at the event. If you wish to bring items for the community table we ask that they be brought in to the store already priced no later than May 4th to have them tagged and set up for the sale. If you wish more info on putting items on the table please feel free to contact me.

Get out your pen and circle May 12th on your calendars and come on out to share in the fun and excitement of the 20th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale.

Please note, the donations received from each year’s event are put back into improving the next year’s event. If you have ideas that you would like to see put into place for upcoming events please share them with us—we want to continue improving this event to ensure it remains something you don’t want to miss.

Inquiries can be made to Carol.

Railtime DVD’s

We have received a new shipment of Railtime DVD’s and another order is getting put together in the next week.  If you would like any titles ordered in for you on the next order please let us know.  Also stop in and check out the titles that have arrived, they will also be added to the website shortly.

Kanamodel Shipment

We have recently received a couple new Kanamodel shipments—lots of structures available in this load.  The items will be added to the website in the next couple of weeks, but if there is something you are looking for feel free to ask before they hit the site.

A lot of Kanamodel Structures are now sold out at the manufacturer so if there is one you have been thinking of getting don’t delay as when these are gone they are gone.
