Comments: Also manufactures and sells USA Trains products. Responsive to customer even to the point of Charles Ro, Jr. talking to you. However, they don't automatically send shipping notification or tracking number for shipment. Website does indicate whether item is in stock by a comment on the items detailed description page, i.e. "N/S ordered on request" means they do not have the item in stock but will get it for you.

Comments: Apparently, Wholesaletrains.com went out of business sometime since 2012 so we came up with this retailer to replace them. They are online order only but they have a nice, modern website.

Comments: Silver State Trains also apparently went kaput in about 2019 so we subsituted Bachmann Trains site.
Comments: Wide selection of manufacturer's products online. Item description indicates how many of an item are in stock. Good prices and selection on Aristo buildings. Sends notification of shipping but does not include tracking number. Shipping charge policy is a bit complex. Shipping charges do not show accurately on invoice at ordering time. Prompt shipping and accurate listing of stock availability. They don't have a security certificate for their website but do have a customer account system.
