Mario's Trains - Kudos | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

cooperthebeagleOGR Forum Member

Just wanted to note for the membership here that I had several great experieences with Mario's Trains. Joe (who I believe is Mario's nephew) is the person with whom I have had contact on my transactions. Very helpful and responsive.

Bought: EZ Streets (he has D-21 curves folks!), WBB Southern B unit that I could not find anywhere else. He has some really great prices on MTH items and if you join his mail list you get offers about 1-2x every 2 weeks.

Everyone has their favorite train store.... or several favorites. Marios is on my list.

If anyone is new to the hobby and just getting started, I recommend any one of the following places to get questions answered, layout problems solved, and excellent pricing.

Catoctin Mountain Trains (Thurmont, MD)

The Moose Caboose (Sykesville, MD)

Patrick's Trains (Wheling, WV)

Train World (NYC)

Mario's Trains (Winchester, VA)

Nassau Hobbies (NYC)

Nicholas Smith (Bromall, PA) - also a first-class, 'neighborhood' toy store (like the one we knew as kids). You have got to see it.

Thanks.

Get on Mario's weekly email: I touched off on a ARR Rs-11, with 25.00 off,

and free shipping couple weeks, ago, and he already had the pricing , in the basement, also

Pretty easy to go with the best bet, at the best places !!

I recently purchased a loco they had listed on Ebay - had it in my hands in Cleveland, OH the very next day!! You can't ask for better service than that!! Definitely on my short list of preferred dealers.

I'm less than an hour away and didn't know Mario's was there until he put an ad on the forum.

Great customer service: Went to their warehouse and grabbed a few items I wanted to look at, have a great selection, and did I mention the Customer service!

Great experience and I will be going back. Terry

I've purchased several things from Mario's, including two ZW-L's. Always willing to make a deal. Doesn't overcharge for shipping, and everything comes super-fast.

Got my dream locomotive from them off of flebay, and it was everything they advertised and more in terms of condition and so forth, box and packing was pristine, etc (in case anyone cares, it was a Williams Brass NYC Hudson, one of the crown editions).
