Can anyone suggest a dealer, preferably in the U.S. (because of shipping costs) that carries a large and fairly complete stock of Falller HO kits. I have contacted a company in Montreal, Quebec, which seems to fill the bill. Unfortunately they do not respond to e-mail in a timely manner. Right now I am interested in trackside Yard buildings and steam facilities for Era 1 and 2.
Thanks, Dick

Eurorail Hobbies is in Canada. They have a very complete selection and their website is user friendly. |

Try Bill Ott. (www.modellbahnott.com) I was just in his store this afternoon and he has quite a few Faller, Kibri and Vollmer kits in stock. He may have what you are looking for (the site shows stockage, so you can tell if he has it) |

Dick where are you located? your profile doesn't show part of the country your in.
NE Hobby also has a decent stock . However they have the worst web sight in creation. Almost non existant.

Walthers @ http://www.walthers.com. You might also want to consider Auhagen's ( http://www.auhagen.de) kits, especially if you are modeling northern Germany. They are much better detailed and prototypical in scale, i.e. 1:87. Their prices are also very reasonable. Euro Rail Hobby in New Jersey sells them. See them online @ http://www.eurotrainhobby.com/. p. Quote:[size=1" face="Verdana" id="quote]quote:Originally posted by Dick

You should check the prices at the German stores. Most carry good stocks of Faller. Faller is the right choice providing a great selection with good detail. Also look at Vollmer and to a lesser extent Kibri.

Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer. |

Another obvious choice would be eBay. My Dad peruses eBay for buildings all the time. You can get good deals there, and they also sell buildings that are all built-up already. With me not being the Bob Vila of model structure building, I prefer the buildings all built-up. Also, you can get some reasonable rates from eBayers and they normally ship within the United States and I have purchased the vast majority of my buildings on my layout from eBay. I have also made some very valuable friends via eBay, and I sell model railroad equipment as well as buy on eBay. I am currently selling-off all my old O-gauge tinplate equipment I have amassed over the years to make room -- and funding -- for my new Marklin layout, and I am very happy with the results. I hope this will help. Good-bye for now. Sincerely: Night Train
