Miniatures made in the USA for model railroad, doll house, Linemen, & other great hobbies!
With the help of wonderful customers like you, MrTrain.com will soon be celebrating our 26th year of making scenery, train shelves, and gifts for the model railroad, toy train & miniature world hobby enthusiasts. Our items are proudly made in the USA (Western Pennsylvania). MrTrain.com listens to what our customers want and can’t find, so we continue to introduce new items based on people in the model railroad hobby are transitioning to. We introduced the next generation, Adam into the business in 2020.
NEW for 2025: Adam has taken over the business in 2025 and provides a lot of knowledge and keeps up with technology in the business. His goal is to provide great products for the model railroad and toy trains hobby while also providing a 5-star experience for the model train and miniature train collectors.
Much of our miniature scenery works great for other hobbies such as dioramas, bird houses, doll houses, school projects, and other creative projects that you are working on.
HOW WE STARTED: Alan personally has been collecting model trains for over 53 years and wanted to turn his hobby into a business. He started by getting trains out of their boxes and up on display. He built a 12’ x 20’ room for his collection of Lionel model trains. His goal was to display his toy trains without having support brackets. This led to designing an aluminum display shelving system that held the entire collection, including the heaviest locomotives without any bowing, sagging or worry. He soon realized other people had a need for these model railroad display shelves for their train collections, which included other brands such as Menard’s, Atlas, Railking, Lionel, American Flyer, so he began selling online.
Soon afterward, he started making handcrafted bridges, trees, tunnel portals, and accessories for his train room from up-cycled materials (from local companies). They became an instant success!
MrTrain.com products are also popular with other miniature hobby enthusiasts in the dollhouse, bird-house, lineman, crafting, and wedding venues, so we have expanded our line of products and custom items to meet their needs.
We offer some items at wholesale prices so if you have a business and are interested in selling our products, contact us for more information. We do very well at keeping up to demand, considering our model railroad scenery is hand crafted.
