Hi guys,

I will be visiting Madrid and Barcelona in September. Previously, I saw another post mentioned there's a market (either in Madrid or Barcelona) that opens on Sundays that sells model (trains/cars). I couldn't find that post again, does anybody has any ideas?

I can tell you about Barcelona.
We have a market the first sunday of the month, except August, from 9:30 to 13:30 at Plaça de Masadas, https://goo.gl/maps/hwcU8.
Anyway I recommend you to visit a couple of MRR shops in the city:
Gotthard Trens, http://www.gotthardtrens.com/, https://goo.gl/maps/S0u8Z, and Casa Palau, http://www.palauhobby.net/, https://goo.gl/maps/5736f.
I hope you enjoy your visit to Barcelona.

Thanks Rbonet. I will be travelling all the way from Hong Kong, so it's going to be a long ride. If I want to find some good second hand trains, what is the best place to look for? As you mention it opens on every first Sunday of the month. Could I confirm with you it's going to be open on Sep 7?

Yes, I confirm that the Plaça Masadas street market will open on sep 7. By this date they will move to another square, some 100 meters away: https://goo.gl/maps/FQ09J.

Gotthard Trens and Casa Palau have also second hand trains.
Gotthard has a list of second hand items here: http://www.gotthardtrens...rincon_coleccionista.pdf
