Roy's Train World in Mesa - Come in, take a look!

     Thank You for visiting Roy's Train World. We are a family owned and operated "exclusively trains" store located in Mesa Arizona that was founded by LeRoy Honetschlager and is devoted solely to model trains and related items. Roy's Train World has been doing business in the same location since we opened in 1974 and we are the largest and most complete source for model trains and railfan information in Arizona. We stock complete lines of Z scale, N scale, HO, Lionel and Marklin. We also stock Large Scale including LGB, Aristocraft, USA Trains, and Bachmann. As well as maintaining a large selection of paints, scenery materials, books, magazines, videos, T-shirts and much, much more. For the very young railroader, we carry a complete line Thomas wooden trains as well as a variety of other Thomas items and we periodically have consignment and used merchandise as it becomes available.

     Tim, Roy's son and the current owner, is a railroad aficionado in his own right. He is one of the founding members of the Arizona Railway Museum and maintains ties to the National Model Railroading Association, and the Arizona Division of the PSR/NMRA. He maintains a local library of southwest railroad information that is one of the most extensive in the state and is quick to share it with anyone that is interested.

     Roy's is the Arizona jumping off point for any thing that has to do with railroading in the southwest. Drop by and see us or E- mail us if you're coming out west and are looking for current railfan information.
