Model Trains

Whether you've got a layout that fills two rooms or you're getting ready to buy your first train set, Hub City Hobby is your source for model railroad supplies. For the beginner, we have a selection of starter sets, which generally include a locomotive, three or more additional cars, a power supply, and a circle or oval of track. Basic sets are available in most popular scales, from very large (G scale) to very small (Z scale), and everything in between (O, HO, and N scales). An HO or N scale starter set is usually the least expensive way to get started in model railroading, and can later serve as a starting point for a more elaborate layout.

Experienced railroaders will appreciate our wide assortment of rolling stock, track, and scenery from such major manufacturers as Athearn, Atlas, Bachmann, Model Power, Roundhouse, Walthers, and Woodland Scenics. If you need tools, scratch-building supplies, or model railroading books and magazines, we've got them!
