CHARLES RO COMES ABOARD AS A NEW OGR SPONSOR!!!

Ohhh.. BTW.. Since entering this hobby recently (see above post.. pretty new at it) started dabbling in G scale. I have bought all Charles Ro locos, track, and rolling stock (their USA Trains line of products). They earned my business with 'deeds', not slick empty 'support after the sale' hype (MTH,, are you listening ?), when Ro helped me out when I was so frustrated with MTH and my support issues with MTH.

Anyway.. My Ro (USA Trains) G scale gear is still in the box.. busy.. no time to set it up... but I am looking forward to using it. For now.. .just a nice Boston and Maine ABA combo is sitting as a static display over the fireplace.

That's a nice story, Jim. I buy my online stuff with a credit card that doubles the warranty, though I've never had to see how well it works. I'll definitely check out Charles Ro, as I'm looking for a mail order place for train supplies.

Charles Ro has been a great supplier of my railroad needs ever since I got back into model railroading. It was tough getting the OGR magazine and not having Charles Ro to go to in the ads. Now that is ancient history and I can enjoy my magazine and LHS as one. MilwRdPaul

My first purchase of Lionel MPC was my 1975 Little Joe Electric from Charles Ro.

Hard to believe its been nearly 40 years. I've purchased other items over the years from Charles Ro and have been completely satisfied.

Great. Been dealing wit them for 20 + years. Just visited their store last week. 

The bad news is my son and his family moved from home (Georgia) to Essex, MA a few years ago.  The good news is I now get to visit Charles Ro on  each visit to my son's place     We all went to Charlie's this past Saturday.  As many have already said, their service, selection and prices are great.  I am aways a bit surprised at how knowledgeable the staff is on not just the inventory but their technical expertise and all around helpfulness.

Having them join in the OGR family and helping support the forum and magazine is great news.
