About Us

The Trains Store is your one-stop shop for everything you need to enjoy your favorite hobby. Whether you’re into model trains, railroading, garden railroading, scale modeling, or toy trains, we’ve got you covered with a diverse selection of books, magazines, DVDs, and downloads—plus modeling tools, kits, gear, and gifts.
Firecrown is home to some of the most storied legacy brands in media history—several dating back a century—but we’re not a legacy media company.
Founded in 2024, Firecrown is moving past the industry’s traditional models to reinvent what’s possible. The name comes from the Firecrown hummingbird, one of the most intelligent bird species. Firecrowns are fierce fighters and defenders of their territory, as well as swift, beautiful, and agile.
Like our namesake, we’re nimble, fierce, move at impossible speeds, and come armed with an insatiable appetite.
It’s these qualities that drive our purpose: to build engaged audiences in marine, aviation, and supply chain, and create multi-dimensional enthusiast ecosystems that feed their passion.
