I have been to Train Town....I can't go often.....this place is hazardous...to your wallet and budget...AWESOME store and SUPER FRIENDLY PEOPLE!!!! An absolute MUST SEE!!!!!
Great trains and good guys. You are right. It is such a fun shop to go to. Thanks for watching. Next time you are in, you will have to tell them you saw my video.
@@GfwTrains Yes ,I'm waiting on an order now and I usually order items about once a month .I will definitely tell them .I have Standard guage o tinplate and postwar items .Most I have bought from them ,and Ives and American Flyer wide guage ..,real nice and at good prices .And in my area (PA) I can't find anything like what they have .I'm 65 and fortunately I'm getting Social security and a pension ,so I have some extra money each month .But they are great people .I just sent for a 2328 Burlington GP 7 and some 6464 box cars .yes I will call them soon and let them know it was a great video .Thank you !!!
@@davidschaadt5929 very cool! I will have to contact them and do a mail purchase from them. I did not know they did that. My grandpa has a nice collection and we are always looking for something neat for him for a gift.
Nicely done, young man on camera. But quantity is one thing, quality is another. Will have to go there to see if they have any collector-grade postwar or just someone else's fleamarket stuff.
If you go looking for collector grade quality, you will not be disappointed. Trust me. Those guys have an amazing inventory. I wish I had more close ups so you could see the merchandise better. The guys who own the shop are nationally known collectors. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. Again, trust me a trip there will be worth your while...especially if you are a collector.
For sure. I have been there twice when I was in St. Louis. I loved it. The owners were great too. Thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment.
I've been going there for years! The owners Bob & Mary are very nice! I'm into HO..Scale.& N-Scale! They have a nice selection of slightly used products @ a good price! Thanks...Train Town! Very nice video! I was sec./treas. of the Midwest Valley Modelers Elite Model Train Club!
It is such a cool store. Everyone there was very nice. Cool on your participation in your club. Way to keep the hobby rolling. Thank you for watching the video and I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
Hi, great "Store tour" plenty of gems in there. Great Editing. Nice to see a young Gent like your self infront of the Camera. Job well done. Id love a trip to the U.S 1 day and if i do, i,ll like to call in there. Cheers for shareing this video. Grant.
Thank you so much for the kind words and watching. The store is definitely worth a visit. Here is to hoping that we can travel and you can make a trip to the US soon.
Oh man, I could spend the whole day at this place, thanks for the tour guys! One of the coolest hobby shops that I have personally been to is Midsouth Hobbies and Games in Memphis, TN. They have tons of train stuff there plus they have a slot car track too!
Wow! I would love to check out that shop there in TN. Sounds awesome! I am glad you liked the store. It sure is a neat one. Thank you for watching the video and taking the time to comment.
@@GfwTrains yeah it's a pretty cool place! You might have to call them if your planning to visit in the near future, when I talked to them last time, they said they weren't allowing customers in the shop right now because of the pandemic but were doing curbside order pickups.
That is big train-store! I am surprised they have a lot of Lionel Trains including some sports trains! My local train-shop that I go to mostly have MTH and Lionel Trains! Glad you went there!
It is an amazing train store that is pretty unique. If you ever go to St. Louis, you have to make sure you go there. Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Great visit to a train store...now the big questions did you come home with a box full of merchandise?????? Keep up the good work. And glad your museums are open in your area. Here in Connecticut they all are still closed...
GFW If I went to that store I’d have to bring a U Haul truck because you bet I’d buy a TON of stuff from there 😆! Thanks for the tour and great video like always!
Corey, the shop was amazing. They had so much stuff and the inventory was mostly post war. Fantastic pieces too. Everything fro Santa Fe F3s to a 763 Hudson. You truly would love this shop.
It is sure a hidden gem. I have not been to any other stores like it. It is sure a real throwback. Complete with the guys in the back of the store drinking pop and talking trains. Thanks for watching.
Hi Jasper! Small world, huh? I can’t believe you found my channel. I hope you like it. That was a very cool trolley that you got. I have always wanted a No. 60 trolley. Maybe we will bump into each other again. Did you say you were from Chicago? I am from the Chicago area too. :-)
Wow! There is a train store in a town nearby, but it's all new stuff. When I am passing through I will walk through it and perhaps buy a magazine or some track. I like to see what is new and available to the hobby. However, I am not impressed with the quality of new trains from China. I wish there was a store like this one nearby. Thanks for sharing. Since Covid they have cancelled two train shows nearby. Bummer!
This sure was a fun train store to visit. They were very nice and had some amazing stuff. Thank you for watching. I agree with you too. This stuff is not like the new stuff. :-)
I have been to Train Town....I can't go often.....this place is hazardous...to your wallet and budget...AWESOME store and SUPER FRIENDLY PEOPLE!!!! An absolute MUST SEE!!!!!
Yes, you can sure do a lot of damage to your wallet there, am I right? Such a cool place. I wish I lived closer. Thanks for watching.
I buy just about all my train items from Train Town .Good prices And they find really nice condition items .Dave from Easton .
Train Town is an amazing store. I wish there were more like it. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
Great video
Thank you for the kind words, for watching, and taking the time to comment. I appreciate it.
I have bought lots of prewar and postwar items from them .Great rare trains ,great prices !! Dave from Easton .
So much of their stuff is in beautiful shape and they are honest about discribing condition ,I've gotten everything mail order .
Great trains and good guys. You are right. It is such a fun shop to go to. Thanks for watching. Next time you are in, you will have to tell them you saw my video.
No kidding, you have gotten stuff mail order!?! That is a good idea.

The shop was super amazing. If you ever get to the St. Louis , you need to go there. It is a gem. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
That is some old school cool right there. Thanks Vanna for the tour, nice hat!!
It’s not Vanna, it is George...LOL. Thanks for watching.
@@GfwTrains With all the hand/arm gestures, I thought you were trying to audition to replace Vanna White, LOL
I live right next to this shop and I recently went there last week to buy an army switcher!
Great shop, isn't it? Nice purchase. I cant wait until I can go back again. Thanks for watching.
Did your Pops and you score some super stuff, George? Awesome place!!!
We got some scores! I can’t wait to share

Get that Postwar GFW
Ya!
Cool!
It was really cool! If you ever make it to St. Louis you have to go. It is worth the trip.
Gfw Trains ok!
It’s good to see a young guy like this with an interest in this, could it be he’s is the owners grandson. We need a price list.
:-) No relation to the owners...I wish my family owned a train shop. Especially this one. Thanks for the kind words, I hope you enjoyed the video.
Was there a subliminal message at 0:15? I want to switch to O scale of all a sudden. Great tour!
Thanks for the kind words. LOL, that whole conversation with those guys was a subliminal message. :-)
Nice Video.
Thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to comment.

It was a fantastic visit. The train store is sure unique. Thanks for watching.
The store is packed with trains. A fun place. If you ever go to St. Louis, you have to make sure you go there. Thanks for watching.
Gfw Trains Your Welcome! Cool!
Gfw Trains Your Welcome! Cool! I know that Saint Louis and Kirkwood Missouri are two of the biggest railfanning spots.
That train store is cool!
It is an amazing train store that is pretty unique. If you ever go to St. Louis, you have to make sure you go there. Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Great visit to a train store...now the big questions did you come home with a box full of merchandise?????? Keep up the good work. And glad your museums are open in your area. Here in Connecticut they all are still closed...
I wanted to buy a lot. We bought a few things. If we had more money, we would have bought a ton. Things are just starting to open up now.
great store! thanks for taking me there.
Cool! Can’t wait!
I hope you liked it. It was a neat store. I appreciate you watching..
I would be in heaven there!! My wallet would be screaming though! LOL
Too funny. The place was amazing. So many neat things....and yes your wallet would be screaming LOL. Thanks for watching.
Love it!
Thanks!

Wow!!! The 3 gentlemen in the store most likely have a wealth of knowledge that is worth millions of dollars. Good video George & Wally
Those guys in the store were great. I hope that one day I can have a place to go and chat with my friends like that. Thank you for the kind words.
Wish I knew about that store when I was out that way a few years ago.
It is sure a hidden gem. I have not been to any other stores like it. It is sure a real throwback. Complete with the guys in the back of the store drinking pop and talking trains. Thanks for watching.
Nice one Gfw Trains :)
Thank you for watching. It is truly a neat store. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

So what did u buy did buy some models o gauge Lionel trains
Sure did! There was so much to pick from. I bought a postwar caboose and a modern PFE reefer.
@@GfwTrains that is so sweet I like to see them run
How the hell can you afford post war stuff I can only afford good quality mpc era stuff .Hell must of my Lionel collection is mpc
You just have to keep your eyes peeled. I get a lot at shows. Especially Train Collectors Association shows. Thanks for watching.
What's the store call train Town
Can i have the location of the train store on maps
