Re: Boy who loves trains



I'm not so sure about King's Hobbys as far as servicing old lionel trains.  Maybe one of our club members knows who locally services old trains?  (reply to john directly: jmcewan@falconsouthwest.com).

Another quick question for you.  I dug an old Lionel set out of my grandmothers attic and I’d like to get it working before Christmas (the train is a Texas Special 211).  I have no background with trains, although I am somewhat handy.  What resources do we have in Austin that I might be able to lean on to get some basic help on getting an old set up and running?  I’ve heard of King’s Hobbys but that is about it.  Can you help with some ideas at all?

 

Thanks,

John

Hey John, 

Yes, our club is setup downtown and running trains on the weekends through mid Jan.  Here is a flyer describing the event.  Come see (and run) some trains!

Steve.

I have a 3 year old son that loves trains.  Is there somewhere in Austin that you know of that has a model train setup for kids to go see during the holidays?

 

Thanks,
