What an amazing store. Their sales people are knowledgeable and patient. They have an amazing selection of trains, planes and automobiles. I have purchased several Mikes Train House engines and vintage Lionel sets. It is always fun to go in and just talk with everyone. I always find a car or scenery piece to take home

We've been customers for ten years; won't return. After spending over a thousand dollars on full sets, accessories and decor during the past five years, I attempted to return an unopened box car that I had pruchased three days earlier. The new owner specified "store credit". When I objected, telling him we had spent a great deal in his store and wanted the credit card I had used re-credited, he kept me waiting, slowly opening and closing the container, rebutting my statement that we had not opened the box. BTW, the car we returned represented less than half of our recent transaction. I'll buy my grandkids trains online or at other stores that treat customers with respect.

Doug, A personality of a Silverback Ape!. I been there once and seen him deal with customers. A very awkward dry sense of Humor who is all about squeezing a dime out of everyone...

Any parent of a train fanatic will love this place! Train tables, toys, puzzles, books, dress-up clothes, crafts, and the "real" train display will keep them smiling. VERY clean and super-nice staff!

I took my son here for "Family Friday" For $10 (adults are free), you get three hours to play, pizza, and drinks. They have thomas wooden railway tables with a large selection of trains. They have a huge model train set with about a million sounds and lights to make you crazy, but the kids love it. There is a coloring table, dress up station, plus puzzels and smaller floor trains.Basically, any kid could keep busy here. The staff is incredible courteous and very good with the children. Definitely a nice place to take kids, especially train lovers.

I took my son for a "train playdate". He didn't want to leave after the playdate was over. An awesome playdate, something different than your run of the mill playdates. Both little boys and little girls were having a great time. The trains had the kids mesmerized. The new owners, Doug and Paula were both very personable and helpful and knowledgeable . I am so happy to have an alternative to the run of the mill playdates. They are doing some very creative things with their store. Definitely moms of little ones looking to do something different check out this store. I believe they will be adding additional playdates. Also, I got some really good info from Doug regarding buying kits for my son's Polar Express rather than buying assembled which is much more expensive. Fun, informative and something different. My son can't wait to go back. Thank you Doug and Paula. Best Regards Beth Plechner

Been going here for years.Great place,Doug the new owner is very fair both buying and selling. Told a guy from work,he took his kids,son wanted a new HO engine. Kid had about 500 choices in the used case. Finally after just about as many questions, made a choice. Had the wrong style couplers so they changed them out for the correct ones,no charge. My friend can not stop talking about what a great place this is and can't stop thanking me for sending him and the kids there. So if you are looking for something special or just looking,this place is worth the trip.

Great store! Awesome new owner who is personable and caring. More trains and knowledge than you could imagine. You can buy and sell back all kinds of train products. There is no other place like this in the Philly area.

The ONLY place to buy trains from. If you do NOT want to waste your money then go here. I have not been able to find any place like this within an hour drive.

Best model train shop I've seen since leaving north eastern Pa. about 5 years ago. There just aren't many of this kind of store around. It's a must see for sure. Wish there were a few more around.
