They have one huge train table and about four normal sized tables, and hundreds of train cars and engines. You can stay and play for hours and no one will ask you to buy anything. Of course we have actually bought quite a few things there! The products are great quality and the people are very nice. <br /> My son (age 4) insists that they are actually called the Little Shortline Railroad, and if you try to correct him he just points out that the trains are very little.</p> I take my son to the Whittle Shortline Railroad store in Valley Park about once a month.

I'm thinking from the perspective of an American toy manufacturer who is competing on a very uneven playing field. If the company is backlogged and can't make enough toys to fill demand, well, that's a lot better than having a warehouse filled with unsold toys.</p> Nah, I meant fortunately.
