I'm planning to go to Kitchener-Waterloo this weekend and was wondering if anyone can recommend any LHS's there? In particular, I'm interested in ones that might sell British (Hornby, Bachmann) products. Thanks! Rob

train1 said:2B is in Fergus. The closest true Trainshop to Cambridge & KW would be the one at the Brantford Train Station in Brantford. It's only open on the weekend 12 - 5 and Thurs/Friday 5 -9. My hometown of Paris also has a hobby shop - mostly RC cars/planes and limited non specialty RR stuff. Open Tuesday to Saturday only.
Both are south of where you are going to be.
However If you feel adventurous - the Ancaster Flea Market is this Sunday at the Ancaster Fairgrounds (off the 403 near Hamilton). It's always a good show for things - always full of treasure.
