Great store. Fun place to drop in and browse. Highly recommended! 👌
Awesome news! Brady’s was extremely well organized at York. They had a printed out image on every item for sale. It’s like walking through a catalog, extremely helpful!!
John and his brady trains travels to many distant train shows, like our Greenberg Edison, NJ show. He will deliver at the show to save shipping. His web site has a used, previously owned section with some very good deals. Shipping is reasonable. John has a warehouse full of many hard to otherwise find items since he has been around for many years, very experienced. Some of his special runs are exceptional, found no where else. john even had a black friday discount code, something not all on line and brick store shops do,
Welcome aboard!
Anybody who laments the decline of brick and mortar hobby shops in the 21st century has got to make a trip to John Brady’s store in Greensburg PA. It does not disappoint.
Great news! If ever in the Western PA area, be sure to visit the store if you can!

When I’m in Greensburg visiting family I always they to make some time to visit Brady’s. Great shop!
Great news! I've been going to Brady's since he was in his old store back in the 90s and my first MTH set came from him as well.
Definitely a go to every time I visit my family in Western PA.
I only learned about Brady's Trains last week when I saw a video of their custom run Big Boy. I wish they could run it again as I feel its the best version of the Big Boy ever put out. Fantastic!
Welcome to the Forum!
Just received his version of the Big Boy, fantastic rendition.
John's store is about an hour-and-a-half drive for me, but I definitely will pay him a visit in the near future. Thanks for your support of the magazine and the forum, John, and welcome aboard!
I visited the store the Saturday after Thanksgiving. The crowd was huge and the selections were amazing. It was my first visit and it doesn't disappoint.

Welcome aboard!
Thank you for supporting the OGR world,
I checked out your website and I was very impressed by its layout, organization, navigation, and content.
I will plan a visit to your shop from here in the Finger Lakes area of upstate NY in the springtime - after the Vette comes out of hibernation.
Brady's is a world class hobby store. I always look forward to visiting the store when I am in the area.

Thank you for supporting the Forum, John! I’ve driven down to the store a few times, but have seen your display at the Monroeville Greenberg show many times. I have always been pleased with what I have purchased!

I've shopped mainly online, even though you're about 2 hours away from where I live. Your store and staff gave me a warm welcome on line and I appreciate the discounts you offer to veterans. It's nice to know there are still people who appreciate service to their country. Many thanks.
