Established in 1985, we provide a full range of your hobby requirements. We sell, buy, trade, and consign trains, model kits, slot cars, tools, anything hobby related. We buy collections and estates.
The store itself is excellent. I would have given this place 5 stars, but the men behind the cash were not wearing masks. (One had his mask hanging off his ear with his face exposed, so clearly he didn't have a medical exemption.) This is not the time to be defying mask-wearing by-laws when we're potentially on the cusp of the third COVID wave with viral mutations.
I have been going here for years! Great bunch of guys! You can find anything from Trains to Slot Cars, plastic model kits, hot wheels! Die cast and scratch building materials and supplies! If you have never visited this is truly a hidden hobby gem in the city!
p.s. If they arent too busy ask to see the fantastic train layouts they have!!!
The very best in Customer Service and Fair Pricing!!!
Alex, the owner of Panther Hobbies & Trains, runs his business from the heart and truly cares about face to face interaction with his customers. Being from Long Island, NY, my purchases were via the internet and telephone. Alex went out of his way to assist me in locating hard to find N Scale passenger cars I was looking for. I would highly recommend everyone to visit the store first, and if you can't due to distance, make contact with this outstanding proprietor.
