The
Time has come:
We
are Going out of Business
The building has been sold, and our lease is up. After 64 years (the last 15
with owners Bob and Jane), North End Train Center closed its doors Saturday,
April 9th.
It’s
been a privilege to serve everyone for the last 15 years.
I’ve made a lot of friends, learned a lot about trains, and when I’m
in the south of France sipping wine and playing Petanque, I will think of you.
Our
phone number is still the same (206-362-4959), however our mail address
has changed. You can send mail to us at:

The Northwest’s #1 Scale Model Train Store
North End Train Center’s focus is to provide a supportive and
friendly environment where customers are introduced to the model train hobby and
are encouraged to improve their modeling skills by using North End Train Center
as a resource and a means for networking. Some of the things we do to
accomplish this are: stock detail parts, scratch building materials and paints;
have a large selection of magazines and books; have a "what’s new"
area; provide stools for customers to sit and swap stories; maintain a bulletin
board with current railfan and modeling activities and introduce people to each
other.
North End Train Center also provides model railroad products that are useful
to all types of model railroaders, from beginners to experts, and everything in
between. Just starting out? We stock train sets, and helpful books to get you
started off right.
