A new train store has recently opened in Harrison, NY, and with people predicting the end of the hobby(sarcasm), I wanted to let people know about it. It is called "Awesome Items at the Collector Station. It is owned by Joe Mazzullo who recently retired from the Harrison Department of Public Safety. He sell postwar trains and musical instruments. He does not have new Lionel. He has a great selection of postwar and getting more in. I saw a perfect Texas Special and Norfolk and Western J set. I got a nice set of 2353 Santa Fe's.

 

DISCLAIMER: I have no interest in this other than having a postwar source close to me in White Plains!!

I wish them great success, hope they end up doing a nice amount of business and are around for a long time.  My train store opened in 2010 and has been increasing their sales and building their inventory each year. Takes time (and money) to build up a well stocked train store. I too am optimistic about the future of our trains, just hope we are right about the optimism. I'm hoping my train store is around a long time too.

 

On a side note, this is an old one from my working days and it also kind of fits my re-entry into the hobby a few years ago, the definition of an optimist: One who lacks experience.

We are always interested when a new store is opened and welcome them to consider promoting themselves here on the forum and in the magazine.  To be fair to those that pay for this service, I have edited direct links, directions, and phone numbers from the posts above.  Those that may be interested in visiting this fine store will have to go online or contact those with the information using their profile.

 

Thanks,

Alan

With all the competition for used trains, from assorted dealers in same, I wonder how

he can keep an inventory, without getting into some of the new train brands, although

I am aware of four (more popped into my head as I typed...maybe more) new train

dealers who have vanished (and two hobby shops), in this general area.  However,

that is more of a "train center", in the northeast.  I quit setting up at Wheaton and

York, because I was not finding new and different items to offer.
