Moving Updates
Model Railroad Benchwork Is Moving to North Carolina!
Current Order Status:
All new orders will not ship until we have reopened the shop in North Carolina [Est Jan 15th].
Orders 10448 and under have shipped.
Big changes are happening at Model Railroad Benchwork (MRB)! After many years in Florida, we’re excited to announce our relocation to North Carolina—a new chapter as we continue to grow and expand. [If you haven’t met me yet, I’m Sandy, the Office Manager!]
We're thrilled about the move and want to keep you updated on delays, shop changes, and our journey rebuilding the workshop, with plenty of YouTube videos along the way.
Thank you for your support as we settle into our new home. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. We look forward to serving your model railroading needs from North Carolina!
Update 12/3:
All orders flagged to go out before the move have now been shipped. Orders placed between now and shop reopening will be placed on a hold until the shop is set up!
Update 12/2:
The shop is processing all orders placed on Thanksgiving day and earlier (order #10448 and earlier). Once these orders are completed and our last custom order for the year is done we will be spending all next week tearing down the shop. YouTube videos discussing the move and following the tear down and new shop will be following.
Update 11/15:
Starting in late November, you may experience longer-than-usual processing and shipping times as we transition to our new location. We’re working hard to minimize disruptions and appreciate your patience during this period. We will keep this page updated as orders are handled. Once the shop starts moving no orders will be able to be processed. We are aiming for reopening January 15th!
Changes to Bolt Holes on Orders that include "Holes":
Beginning November 28, 2024, bolt holes will only be available via special request. 1" Wiring holes will have no changes. This change reflects updates our recommended methods of attaching modules (screws, as they are more secure and eliminate wiggle). If you’d like bolt holes added to your order, please be sure to specify this during checkout and we will invoice you per module purchased.
