Grey Central Railway Club Model Train Show—This Saturday, September 21, 2024

With the onset of fall comes the train shows and this weekend there is one close to our customers in the Grey/Bruce Area. The Grey Central Railway Club will be hosting their Annual Train Show this Saturday, September 21, 2024 from 10am to 4pm. This year it will be hosted at the Grey Highlands Kinplex, 2 Highland Drive in Flesherton, ON.

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 a few running layouts, and a selection of vendors selling railway items and supplies.

So come on out, meet the group, and support a local train show.

Customer Appreciation Weekend

Fall will be here before we know it.  Soon the time will be perfect for you to be in the warmth working on your projects and layouts.

We invite you to join us for a Customer Appreciation weekend:

Saturday November 2, 2024 from 10am to 5pm
Sunday November 3, 2024 from 10am to 5pm

Come out and enjoy the following:

  • In-store specials (will be posting a few to Facebook the week or two before the event)
  • Depot specials
  • A customer appreciation draw
  • Hot drinks and goodies

This year we have been in business for 29 years, we hope to see you at this event so that we can say thank you.

24th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale a Success

Saturday, September 7th marked our 24th Annual Model Railroad Garage sale.  While the weather did not work well with us this year, it did not dampen the spirits of those that attended the event.

We did as much as possible to ensure that if the weather was not the best the event would still go on.

There was a record attendance this year and people made new friends, found some treasures and enjoyed what the event offered.

We want to take the time to thank everyone that helped support the 24th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale.

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.

Don’t forget next year’s 25th Annual event is happening on September 6.  More details to follow, closer to the date.

24th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale–This Weekend

Here is a friendly reminder that the 24th Annual Model Railroad Garage Sale happens this Saturday, September 7th running from 9am to 1pm.  There are quite a few vendors signed up and a different mix of items that you will see this year.  A bunch of new items have shown up just in time for the event in the depot as well. There will also be a number of in-store specials and draws.

Come on out, find some bargains, meet some fellow modellers, have a good time. Watch our Facebook page this week for a few little hints of what a few of the deals might be.  Don’t have Facebook go to our site and you can see the posts there as well.  We hope that the weather will co-operate with us this year to make this one of the best Garage sales ever.  This year we have around 65 vendor tables signed up. There should be lots of treasures to find. Come join us Saturday for this fine Modellers-for-Modellers event of 2024 (remember, the event goes on, rain or shine).  All the tents have been set up already to keep everyone covered.
