We are in Dana Point this week and wondering whether there are any train stores worth visiting.
Thanks!

Unless things have changed since i lived there, no. Only shops are inland, hopefully Matt drops in with more info
Enjoy DP though, its great, also head to Laguna Beach as well
The Train Crossing in costa mesa is awesome!
BadHorse and RK mentioned two of the three I know of. The other one is Arnies Trains in Westminster (http://www.arniestrains.com) He has a corner of the store dedicated to O Gauge and has a good selection of buildings, track and accessories. He also buys collections so there are deals to be had there.

Matt where is your manners, you should have invited him to the club up the freeway 25 miles north, it will only take him 4 or 5 hours to get there on the 405. If he buys a new engine tell him he can bring it to the club and you will break it for him. I mean break it in for him.

You're right. Where are my manners? Yes, buy that engine and bring it to AGHR for thorough testing. We, have freight cars, cabooses and a nice new mountain branch with a 2% grade to give it a real workout.
