The timing for Choo Choo Johnny’s railroad-themed restaurant is right on schedule. According to the Model Railroad Industry Association, model railroading is more popular now than at any other time in its 103-year history. The Association estimates that more than a half million American adults spend $500 million annually on this hobby.

But model railroading isn’t just for adults. Key personnel at retail stores in the industry agree that interest in trains among kids is on the rise, as trains have a multi-generational appeal. As one hobby store owner observed, “I’ve had children, parents and grandparents come into the store. I don’t know too many things that three generations can enjoy and participate in at the same time.”8 And that’s saying a lot, particularly in this day and age!
