Model Train Tools

Whether it be screwdrivers, adhesives, modeling knives, or soldering irons, Midwest Model Railroad makes it a point to supply each and every model train tool a hobbyist could need to modify and maintain their trains. Taking care of a railroad can be delicate work, so you want to ensure you’re properly prepared and don’t place your railroad at risk of damage by not having the right tools. We also supply individual components like knife tips and screw bits to ensure your tools remain in their best condition when working on your railroad.

Many newcomers may be intimidated by the sheer number of model train tools there are, but you can start with a simple beginner’s kit to get yourself more acquainted with railroad maintenance. As specific needs arise, you can then look for the more niche tools and components in our catalog.
