  • In today's video I visit the hobby centre, one of the few hobby shops in Ottawa that carries Ho and N scale model trains. I visited this store a while back but I didn't do a proper video on it at the time so in this one I tried to get a more complete look tour of the place.

    Nice tour of the Hobby Centre store, Harrison! They sure have quite a bit of used items for sale which is great for beginners in model railroading. Show them everything, but leave them wanting more... they'll just have to wait to see what you added to the collection! 😁
    Thanks for sharing! 👍 👍 👍

    3:26 $7.00 for that European container car is quite a good deal. The model train store I was in about a week ago would've sold that for $15. The same shop is a bit overpriced when it comes to used models other than simple freight cars, and doesn't offer much of a discount on the newer products. But that same store sells new items from Hornby, Piko, and Marklin.

    SMT, What “Mantua (being TYCO’s top-quality manufacture) is to Tyco being,
    the inexpensive cheap line but still with some quality ! Proto 2000 is to lifelike !
    So far from what I’ve seen, all I saw wasn’t even slightly related to the region I cover ! But that southern Pacific passenger set that you photographed was nice ! And even some of the cellophane sealed passenger cars you were looking at I could really use for engine 153 which I already have for the Key West extension and as a a kit-basher, I’d be able to use some of the passenger cars for the”Florida East Coast” Railway cars that went to the Key West extension ! Again having to do it
    kit-bashing style ! But that’s OK because I like doing it in the style so I can get it historically correct or as close to as I can get ! 🌊🐺

  • @antonbruce1241
    @antonbruce1241 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    The "all black" locos and cars are that way usually because they are undecorated. Perfect for train nuts like myself, as I have my own railroads (Quail Valley and Senova Beach and Inland), for which I have my own paint scheme and my own custom decals...which isn't that difficult with the right decal stock and a color laser printer.

  • @FatFreddieT
    @FatFreddieT 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    you should do a vid on used engine prices, what i see on ebay and in peddles mall are very expensive compared to that store.i dont know if it just the difference between the U.S. and Canada or just some folks want 200.00 for a 30.00 dollar engine

    • @SMTMainline
      @SMTMainline  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, there are rough price ranges to expect for used locomotives that I should point out. Canadian prices should appear high to you since our dollar is worth less.

  • @KingTrump2024
    @KingTrump2024 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yup, looks like what you see at a train show. Old Tyco and Bachmann garbage. Question, did their RC and Airplane sections have a lot of used old "vintage" junk too, or did he take more pride in that part of his store. Thats the issue with these types of "Multi-Hobby" shops. Their focus is on one main thing they stock well, and then other bits and bobs that really should of ended up as landfill in other hobby areas. I'm guilty, I go to Pinnacle and hunt their junk bin too. But I honestly just use them for glue and paints. A real train store looks like Credit Valley, or Georges for the matter.

    • @SMTMainline
      @SMTMainline  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Technically any controller will work provided you know how to wire it right but if you're looking for something you can just plug in I would see what bachmann has to offer. They're original ez command system is good and is easy to use but it's pretty old now and has limited features. They're new command system has many more features but I'm not sure how much it costs.
