The Old & Weary Car Shop, Inc.
(Red Pump Junction)
The Old & Weary Car Shop was established in March of 1986 and was primarily operated from my home through magazine advertising and attending train shows. At the same time my uncle and father operated their nursery business in Tappan (where I worked) called Red Pump Nursery. In addition they operated the Red Pump Junction a model train shop as part of their operation. They mainly sold Large Scale, O, O27 model trains and some HO and N. In 2000 after 40 years in business my father and uncle decided to retire. The closing of the nursery business also signaled the closing of the train store. Seeing how their business grew I could not see it ending so I decided to expand my operation and move into my own store. The Old & Weary Cars Shop's new store opened on May 19th, 2001 and has received a warm welcome by everyone whom has stopped in. We have had visits from customers from as far as Arizona and California stop in while in the area. This is rewarding, I look foreword to seeing more and more faces connected with names. Things are moving along smoothly. We have expanded our inventory which, now includes all of the major manufacturers of N, HO, S, O and Large Scale model trains. It is impossible to stock everything, we have access to just about everything produced. We are currently a Lionel, MTH, S-Helper Service, Atlas O, Learning Curve Thomas, Hobbystores, Walthers, Horizon and Hobbytyme Dealer.
I stock a large variety of local railroad history book titles... with much more to come.
