Well 2025 marks our 30th year. Many things have changed since we opened in 1995, but the one thing that remains the same is we are a full service Model Train only store that is here to help our fellow modellers.
We have had a full journey of changes, from being able to order the same products over and over to the pre-order model that is now the norm.
A lot of the Canadian manufacturers that we once had access to (some great products I may add) have since disappeared for many different reasons – leaving some holes in the Canadian market.
DCC has evolved since 1995 in ways that no one would have thought when it was first more massively introduced so many years ago. This is an area that still to this day evolves and keeps getting better.
Key dates from our journey so far:
1995 - Open in the caboose with half ice cream and half model train store
2000 - out grow caboose and move train store to the yellow building we are in today
2018 - add the Depot (estates and consignment) store to the business in the big white and green building beside the store
2025 - 30 years of serving the model railroad community and looking forward to many more – watch for a customer appreciation weekend to be announced for the fall
