Welcome To The Train Station

Good to see you, friend! Glad you could join us here on the Train Station Platform. We love everything about trains, and the model train kits that let us build a world criss crossed by railways inside our houses and in our imaginations.

Don't you love trains? Up close, they're so overwhelmingly massive and powerful, and in the distance the plaintive whistle reaches deep into the heart. A sleek, superfast maglev or an antique steam train, billowing blue smoke and clickety-clacking down the track, trains inspire awe and wonder and capture the imagination of young and old alike.

Well, put on your engineer's cap and tie a red kercheif around your neck, we're riding the rails. All Aboooooooooard!

Model trains are a lot of fun, and a great hobby. Getting a model train set and designing the layout and scenery with trees and bridges and crossings works out your imagination and creativity and keeps your mind sharp and bright. And it really feels good to show off the incredible artistry of your work, enthralling everyone who watches and inspiring admiration and awe.

So lets have some fun with trains. To get in the right mood, here's the Academy Award winning song On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe from the 1946 movie The Harvey Girls, featuring Judy Garland.
