We are a new store focused on the sales of brass model trains of any type. We do also sell kits and ready-to-run locomotives, rolling stock, structures, etc; many at deeply discounted prices. We have a combined 60 years of experience in the model railroad hobby, and we are model railroaders ourselves. We source our inventory from Estates, and we thoroughly check each model for damage, missing pieces, tarnish, dings, etc. Some models have never been operated, and many have never been out of the box. We do not test these models for running quality. There is a fine line of what is considered brand new versus what appears to be new but may show signs of having been tested. We know some purchasers are collectors, and they wish to only have pristine examples of a given model for their collection. We will make every effort to ensure for select models that they never have an electrical current run through the motor. We have removed all models from the box and packaging for photography only.
