TEMPORARILY CLOSED
For the time being we have moved all of our current offerings to Ebay. The move will enhance your shopping experience and also allow us to reach more potential customers. Thank you for your understanding as we transition our current sales inventory to eBay. We plan to have this website redesigned and loaded back up in the future so please stand by. If you would like to be added to our mailing list just go to our "contact us" page and drop us a note or email: thetraindepot@hot.rr.com. We will then notify you when we have reloaded this website. We plan to have lots of sale items, brass and kits for you to choose from.

Welcome to The Train Depot.
We originally saw this website and our store being dedicated to the logging era of model railroading from the late 1880s to the 1940s, but that soon changed. While our love is still with logging, popular demand has made us reach out into the more contemporary steam locomotives of the same era.
We do offer brand new engines and those are marked as such in our store. The new locomotives are NOT tested so that we do not destroy the NEW category of the locomotive. When you buy new you expect new and that is exactly what we provided.

We now offer both brass and highly detailed plastic locomotives in our store. We will be adding some rolling stock in the future and will also be offering HOn3 locomotives as we obtain them. We are currently offering some of the Roundhouse Shay kits, but have added things like new gear sets, can motors, and the like. For now our brass collection is limited as we do not want to offer any brass that is not at its best. As for the brass, in all cases we have cleaned and lubed the engines. Our previously owned plastic locomotives go through rigorous testing in our test facility, so what we are offering is in the best condition possible. When possible we will be adding DCC control and sound to many of our used offerings.
From time to time we will be offer locomotives in our clearance bin. This will be a one of a kind offering and when someone purchases the engine it will be gone forever from our offerings.

We are located in beautiful Killeen Texas, next door to Harker Heights Texas. To keep our prices low we do not have a brick and mortar store but welcome your calls. Our inventory is growing as we have over 25 brass engines in stock - they require testing, many plastic locomotives, both new and used. With time we will get all of the locomotives posted here on our website.
