About Us

Squeaky’s Trains & Things LLC was founded in December of 2019 and officially launched in January 2020.   It was started by our family that has been in love with everything, trains large and small, driven by creativity since we were born.  We grew up playing with model trains and watching, learning about and studying different aspects of magnificent locomotives on a daily basis and today we still do.

It also has helped us get through rough times while dealing with being diagnosed on the autism spectrum.  Trains and creativity have always helped calm our daily lives while also becoming self-taught on making designs and artwork. 

With this our family activity that grew into a really big hobby!  We realized local train stores were barely available and we also wanted to start offering other model railroading fans our self-made creations for their enjoyment.   We want to help the community around us by providing model railroad supplies and continue the legend of the greatest hobby on earth, model trains and railroading!

Our Squeaky’s Trains designs are handcrafted and custom made by our family. We offer a large variety of items from model train objects to household goods. Most in-house models are 3D printed and custom designed in Blender. We also offer custom features for premade model railroad objects, for example train cabin seating and light holders. 

We also provide services such as DCC Installations.
And focus on restoring pre-owned model train goods to make them available for repurpose. 

We thank you for your support, please contact us for any questions or feedback.

Customer support and product quality is our main focus. 

Now… Let’s play with trains!

EMD SD40-2

I purchased 2 Kato SD40-2 to be used with my slug shells I recently made on my 3D printer. Squeaky’s shipping was perfect. Well packaged and fast shipping. Thank you Squeaky for everything.

Good service

Decoder arrived quickly and qwas a good value.

Squeaky's is a GREAT place to get Model railroad supplies

They tend to keep their inventory / computer in synch, so you don't have to worry about getting "not in stock" message or whatever. Saves Time! They communicate very well, keep you informed and are a treasure among small businesses run by the close-knit family. Items are always packed securely and arrive in perfect shape.

Small stations

Nice model; easily built

Nice Train

Really love the detail of this locomotive. Very smooth running. Excellent price too.

Woodland Scenics 5770 | Just Plug Lighting System | Power Supply

Excellent for breaking out decoder terminals

Great for accessing decoder IO's.
The only issue was the motor on board only works if I push in on the flywheel. Other than that it works good.

He loves it!

"It's a wonderful thing I can see what's going on all around my platform now"

I rolled a 300 game at Walthers Vintage bowling alley!

Looks like it'll be a fun kit to put others. Arrived in perfect shape.

Shaper Sheets

Easy to use, very versital, but user must remember to spray the fabric with a little water before applying the shaper sheet plaster. You can also mix it with latex paint, but I found that too be a waste of time.

Ordered a back ordered item

The item was back ordered and the staff constantly kept me informed of the status of the product. I was very impressed with the service and the communication they provided. The product came as promised and works as expected. I will definitely do business with squeaky’s in the future

NixTrainz | Decoder Buddy Mini (1k Ohm Resistors Onboard)

A very nice quality item making decoder installations a bit easier. Best prices at Squeaky's Trains.

Great product came fast as described. Great seller!

Gentili e molto seri

Ottimo negozio. Consigliato

EMD SW-1. Circa 1951. 15 years on the shelf

This model is so old it has brass wheels for the engine. It was never built to run DCC in fact DCC did not exist when I purchased this model. I took it off the shelf after 15 years gutted the insides and added the Soundtraxx products that I bought from you. it was a tight fit. the only problem I have is I only bought one of the tiny mini speakers I should’ve bought two. The sound would’ve been much better and I would’ve had the eight ohms that I needed for the speaker system. I’ll be back to get another one and find a place to put it inside the Engine🤣. Your service was so quick I had a notification that the product shipping label had been created hours after I ordered the parts. The only problem is USPS. Thank you guys I will be back

Get service, great price! Everyone else is higher and charges shipping. Squeaky’s is the best price around and shipping is free!

Programmer is easy to use

This works fine. I use it in combination with the decoder tester, which makes programming and test running the decoder very easy from my PC laptop. Expensive, yes, but worthwhile if several decoder installations are planned, especially if you want to customise the sounds for your existing and future train collection.

The item had a shipping label almost 4 hours after I ordered it amazing

Everything that I ordered arrived in perfect condition. If I had a complaint it would be that the USPS is getting extremely slow.

*withOUT overpowering!

JT’s Mega Steam

Good product. Definitely carries the essence of Cedar Smoke with overpowering.

Accurail Cars

Immediate confirmation of purchase, very fast shipment, arrived in perfect condition. Could not ask for more!

It is 9x16 mm, not 9 x 13 mm as advertised

I haven't had the chance to install this speaker yet, but the size quoted on the website does not match the size stated on the Loksound packet for the 50342, which says 9 x 16 x 3 mm. I've measured it to confirm the length is 16mm, not 13 mm as advertised.

No big deal, I suppose, but I had hoped I could fit it in an n-gauge body cross-wise instead of length-wise. Hence the 3-star rating.

Dear Graham,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the ESU 50342 Rectangular Speaker with Enclosure. We sincerely apologize for the discrepancy between the advertised dimensions and the actual measurements.

We strive to provide accurate product descriptions, and it seems this detail was incorrect. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. We will update the product listing to reflect the accurate dimensions of 9 x 16 x 3 mm to ensure future customers have the correct information.

If this discrepancy impacts your intended use of the speaker, please let us know. We’d be happy to work with you to find a suitable solution, such as a return, exchange, or alternative product recommendation.

Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we appreciate your understanding. Please feel free to reach out if there’s anything else we can assist you with.

Kind regards,
Clayton
