Having been out of the hobby for 8 years, I was really surprised when I found Menards had a train selection in O gauge. What's more its affordable. I located the store in Belton, Missouri went there and bought the American POWER plant and the fire damaged engine house. I was taken back by the price, quality and unique variety they offered.
Haven't ordered any cars yet but at their prices I will.
Where did they come from and is their manufacturing someone else's that went south? Has their line grown since introduction, and what do the established manufacturers think?
