An appointment had me right around the corner from Robbie's Hobbies in Columbus, OH. I needed some Lionel parts so I dropped in really quick. Robbie carries second hand locomotives, freight cars, track and accessories from MTH, Lionel Atlas, K-Line and Weaver. Nice folks and his inventory is VERY extensive. If you ever find yourself north of the OSU campus in Clintonville, stop in and check the store out.

The Lake Erie & Midwestern Railroad is a free-lanced O Scale model railroad that takes place over the last 50 years, or so. Set in the midwest, between Chicago and Pittsburgh, the majority of action occurs in the triangle between Toledo, Cleveland and Columbus, OH. You can find modern fast freights with 6-axle GE and EMD diesels in consist as often as old Alco and Baldwin switchers shoving freight around the spurs to the various industries. It's a great hobby and we're excited to share the progress on the construction of our layout with you.

Sorry for the music early on - I had to overlay it to eliminate a copyright claim due to the house music playing. I filmed this in 4K in case you want to pause and get a closer look at things. Didn't have a ton of time to zoom in on every little thing since I had an appointment to get to, but there is a lot there to check out if you are ever in the area.

I'm so glad this video turned up in my feed! I'm really interested in thinning my herd of model kits and Hot Wheels and some !/18 th scale cars. I only live about a half hour away and never knew this place existed!

Ive stopped there a few times when going to play it nearby. My first trip I ended up finding a bunch of bulk lego in zip lock bags, Some of the pieces i had never seen before so i ended up buying all of it and after getting home and washing it and some research, a bunch of what I got was from the 60s (some was newer).

Man...we need more shops like this in my area. Trains plus diecast...you can't go wrong. The Army K-Line aluminum car caught my eye...I may give them a call. Plus the lava lamps...😆... I was a teenager in the '60s and remember them quite well. Great memories...great shop. Thanks Steve ! ✌️

The K-Line stuff is definitely under rated. Wish they were still around but they got caught with their hand in the corporate espionage cookie jar, lol.

Not a ton of HO at Robbie’s, but right around the corner is The Train Station. A lot of HO locos there. I did a video about 6 months ago on that place. Cheers.

@andrewwhite2863 cool. They’re about 5 minutes apart. Also check out the Smoke Stack in Lancaster if you’ll be passing thru. They are selling off an incredible HO estate.

You and I both love those aluminum AC&F centerflow hoppers, but you missed one in the group of $40 cars on the shelf near where you found the Berwick car. If you pause the video at 5:22, then you will see the Diamond Chemical Aluminum 4-bay hopper by Lionel. I have one of these and they are gorgeous. It's a steal at that price. Thanks for sharing. Wish I was closer to this store. Lots of crazy deals there.

Good catch. I have three of those Lionel units. I was in such a hurry I didn’t even see it. I’m going to swing back through there today if I get a chance to snag that one!

Most of my collection came from there over the years since he opened. He used to have a huge amount of MTH.

@TheLEMRR 5 ай бұрын

Interesting. My understanding is that Robbie had some sort of a falling out with MTH so prefers to sell Lionel mainly these days

@whitmorestrains 5 ай бұрын

@@TheLEMRR That might be. When MTH had starting to fade, he stopped carrying them. He just sells used stuff from the large lots he buys now I think. Most of his Lionel stuff is new though.

I am always looking for Ohio Central stuff. I need more cars. I did buy a pair of engines from there last month.
