The Three Floors Hobby Shop has been in operation for over sixty years and continues to be family owned. Housed in a Heritage building that is over 100 years old the shop is located in the waterfront area of New Westminster

   The door is open, come on in:
      Our street entrance leads to the Radio Control Airplane kits and wooden ship kits.  The main interest of this floor however is Model Railroading with every corner overflowing with the hobby.  Model railroading is still considered to be the World's Greatest Hobby.  Also to be found here are toys from Wilesco (steam engines), Pinecar (cub cars) and Ninco (slot cars). Scratchbuilding supplies such as Evergreen Styrene, K&S Metal, balsawood and basswood are in abundance.  Scalextric and AFX slot cars and accessories reside here also.  

      Up the stairs to the Arts & Crafts area leads to Dollhouses and accessories, Artist's supplies (paints, brushes, papers, pastels), modeling clay, beading supplies and more.  Also on hand are many die-cast model cars from 1/64 scale to 1/18 scale.  Our basement is home for all manner of plastic models such as cars, tanks, airplanes, military figures, trucks and ships.  Continue on to discover a large selection of Flying Model Rocket kits and accessories from Estes and many puzzles to choose from.  You will also find on each level montly magazines and specialty books on every aspect of the hobby world.
