Many companies make garden trains, including Accucraft, Marklin, USA Trains, and Lionel, but three companies stand out with a large selection of garden trains on eBay:
L.G.B.: Large L.G.B. garden trains have details sturdy enough to withstand frequent handling. These G scale trains are designed for indoor or outdoor use, even in rain or snow. Originally modeled on European trains, L.G.B. also introduced numerous models of North American trains as the company grew in popularity. The size of these trains makes it easy to place them on the track, even for children. Bachmann: Established in 1833, Bachmann is the second-largest maker of G scale trains. Bachmann makes high-quality models of North American trains from the past. Aristo-Craft Trains: Aristo-Craft has an enormous selection of large-scale standard-gauge garden trains. Aristo-Craft makes both high-quality modern era and old-fashioned garden trains.
