I Love Toy Trains - A Store for the Young and Old



The more you understand about any subject, the more interesting it becomes. As you read this article you'll find that the subject of toy trains is certainly no exception.

When you hear the phrase, "I love toy trains," most of the time you wouldn't think of a store dedicated solely to toy trains. But that's exactly what that phrase means in New Buffalo, Michigan. New Buffalo serves as home to the infamous I Love Toy Trains, a toy train wonderland that is every child and toy train collector's dream. The store carries Thomas and Friends wooden toy trains and accessories and several unique items from Lionel Corporation.

If the name of the store sounds familiar to you, it's because it was derived from the popular children's video series. The series, "I Love Toy Trains" is an animated show that allows children to use their imagination in the world of toy trains. And that's exactly the concept the store used in finding a name for their establishment - a place where children and adults can go and just let their imagination run free among the hundreds of toy trains and items for sale.

I Love Toy Trains is settled in a 1930's style home on the bottom floor. You'll find an assortment of classic, antique, and new toy trains all together under one roof. Several models of common names in the toy train industry are available at the store. For example, you'll see some beautiful Standard gauge models from the twenties on display, and several manufactures featured include Lionel, Marx, and Williams. You can find classic and simple wooden toy trains ideal for toddlers and small children, and you'll also find toy trains complete with operating engines and hand-painted detail for those looking to "kick it up a notch."

Those of you not familiar with the latest on toy trains now have at least a basic understanding. But there's more to come.

Not only will you find everything you need to create a toy train wonderland, but you'll also find rare and unique toys imported from Germany and Czechoslovakia. Where else can you find a duck on a bike, tumbling bunnies, or singing cowboys? I Love Toy Trains also carries several styles of railroad tracks along with accessories to make your toy train system as realistic as possible. The store carries a wide variety of trinkets ranging in price, so even if you are on a budget you are very likely to find a keepsake at a reasonable price.

I Love Toy Trains is only open three days a week, Friday through Sunday, from 11:00am to 5:00pm EST. If you're ever visiting this area in Michigan, make it part of your trip to visit I Love Toy Trains.

In addition to the trains, there is a delightful selection of clockwork, tin-litho toys imported from Czechoslovakia and Germany - Duck on a Bike, Space Man Robot, Elephant Balancing Ball, Panda Drummer, Rocking Cowboy, Basketball Girl, and Tumbling Bunnies.
