Central Coast Trains store<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located in Atascadero, just 18.5 miles (20 minutes) north from the convention hotel, Central Coast Trains is the largest Train Store between San Jose and the Los Angeles area. This family owned hobby store has actually expanded while other stores are closing. The store is stocked with books, magazines, models \u2013 locomotives, rolling stock, vehicles and figures, kits, scenery supplies, tools and electronics. If owner Anita does not have it in store, she will order it for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scales include O, HO and N. Several small layouts are also on display in the store. This is well worth a trip during your time at the Daylight Limited 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
