    The owner asked what I was looking for. S scale. A shrug and, "I got nothing." Alright. I browsed for 15 minutes and selected a model in "O-S scale, as printed on the box. Does that mean it's somewhere between the larger and smaller scale? Closer to one than the other? "I guess." The item was half-price, so I purchased it, anyway. I'll just do my shopping online -- easier, and I don't have to burden the owner with 60 seconds of interaction.

    I could only go to 5 stars but would have went more if Google would have allowed. I have delt with the owner and his daughter, knowledge, customer service I love going here. This was my Fathers, Fathers pre-war train and they took care of it and us like family. You need not worry if you don't have the answers because they do and will be there for you if anything doesn't work out. Heck I like going there just look around and listen to them. DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE if you are into model railroads, NO ONE COMPARES not even a little bit, ever heard of the NFL Rams "The Greatest Show on Turf" well, this is the Greatest Train Store on Earth!!! Thank you both!!!

    Incredible place for "0" gauge only (nothing here for "HO" or any other gauge, however, the owner did give me a contact that does "HO"). If we had brought along our grandson, I doubt if we would have ever been able to leave the store!
