Can anyone recommend a good train shop in / near Orlando FL. Family trip to WDW is fast approaching. I tried the locator here and a lot of the shops seem to be RC oriented. Which is OK- but I am really looking for some good Train oriented shops.
Anybody got some good ones I should plan to visit while I’m there. Flying into Orlando International and willing to drive a half hour to hour if needs be,\
Thanks!
Biggest and best is Colonial Photo and Hobby. Colonial drive and Mills. Some of the salesmen are a tad snooty if you ain’t a ‘Modeler’. There is/was another but geared towards tourists. In Mount Dora is a small shop with a good selection Specialty is H.O. Installs DCC, fixes problems and a heck of nice man. Shares space with wife. How Sweet It Is is name on door but hobby shop goes by ALL ABOARD SOUTH.

Colonial Hobbies has a great selection, but prices are full msrp & some of the staff
are lets just say less than helpful. Train Depot , W. Fairbanks in Winterpark.
small mom & pop store but good prices and friendly/best customer service.
