Electrains has a rich and compelling history. Founded in 1922, it is the fruit of Arthur Johnson's ambitious dream to create authentic electric rail models for enthusiasts across the globe.

He was widely recognized for imitating even the finest minutiae of trains down to the very last nut and bolt. His venture led to the creation of some iconic model trains, with the 'Union Pacific Big Boy' becoming a cherished collectible today. The brand developed a cult following, invigorating the hobby of train model collecting like never before.
