This store is great for all kinds of models. They had kits for younger kids and adults. The workers were friendly and were able to help choose something my kids would enjoy. The model railroad display was entertaining to look at.

Helped a dear old neighbor with his trains, to find a good home for them. Exceptional experience with a very decent and kind-hearted owner and staff. Wonderful store with a lot to look at and many gorgeous pieces for a train-set builder. Peabody is lucky...Read More

Pretty cool train and hobby shop, probably the best one when it comes to used B&M stock and engines.

Northeast trains is one of the last shops on the north shore that I am able to frequent. They have a good selection of used and new train items. I am personally into HO scale items and have recently purchased a few freight cars here....Read More

Owner is smart, nice and fair unlike semi local competition. Personal service and a very good inventory. They also offer complete train maintenance and repair services with "old pro", at very reasonable rates...$35 an hour.

Really cool old place. The place is a mess, but it appears to be an organized mess. Staff seemed very knowledgeable and could point out right where stuff was. Prices seemed very reasonable. Good place to get used stuff.

Staff was helpful in answering hobby restoration techniques, showed me some related items that would have been hard to find without their help. Need to get back soon, traffic was tough on a Saturday.
