Thank you for visiting Mike's Train Gallery. I have been enjoying the hobby for over 45 years now and I still love to play with my trains. When I started this I decided to be a little different in that everything offered is gone through and tested to the best of my ability. I don't like the words "untested", "estate sale", and "unknown". When you sell a car don't you clean it and check things out first? When at train shows or selling on the internet, I want to feel good about what I am offering to people. I want buyers to be comfortable in that they know what they are getting and that it works. Most of my items have been cleaned so they don't look like they've been in an attic for 50 years, lubricated with oil and grease, and tested for basic functions and operations by going around my own layout multiple times. I'm sorry but I have old school power on my layout therefore I am limited on testing TMCC and DCS operations. Thank you visiting and enjoy looking around my store. M.T.G.
