Aunt Heidi's Toys

Aunt Heidi's Toys Aunt Heidi's Toys is a company based out of Dallas, TX which specializes in train related children's toys, clothing, and other items from top brands.

"Aunt Heidi" began formulating an idea for a toy train business after attending the 2002 Plano Train Show with her then 4 year old son. Inspired by the friendliness of the vendors and the fun atmosphere, she rented a single table at the next year's 2003 Plano Train Show. With the success of her first few train shows, she grew to become a "must visit" booth by show-goers and has expanded continuous

ly ever since. Over 10 years later, Aunt Heidi's Toys has grown into a company which carries quality train related toys and products from top brands, serving customers nationwide through our online store and continuously attending train shows across Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. http://www.auntheidistoys.com/

🚂 All aboard, New Braunfels train fans/family!!

Are you hopping on board for the Spring Train Show this year, or are you going to let this one pass you like a slow freight on a siding? 👀

The Aunt Heidi’s Toys crew is leaving the station in OKC and chugging straight into New Braunfels - no delays... we hope 😅, no stops, and definitely no slow trains here. Blink and you might miss us as we will be running on the express line!

🚉 Pulling into the New Braunfels Civic Center:
Saturday, April 25 (10 AM – 5 PM)
Sunday, April 26 (10 AM – 4 PM)

This family-friendly event is the ultimate destination for lifelong train lovers and future rail fans alike. Whether you’re already on board or just buying your first ticket, we promise you’ll be hooked faster than a high-speed locomotive.

So grab your crew and anyone along the way to avoid getting derailed. We’ll be full steam, slightly off the rails, and ready for a loco-motive good time. 😆

Did someone say All aboard! 🚂

The Aunt Heidi’s Toys crew will be pulling out of the station once again and steaming full speed ahead to the Festival of Trains in OKC! Catch us chugging into the Fairgrounds Expo Hall on Saturday, April 18th (10am–5pm) and Sunday, April 19th (10am–4pm).

Round up all your little conductors, caboose cruisers, and railfans along the route, and make tracks to join us for a first-class adventure! Make sure your little conductor stops in for a spin around the tracks with Thomas the Tank. Plus, plenty of hands-on train play that’s sure to keep imaginations rolling down the rails.

Want to stay on the express and skip the ticket line traffic jam? Pre-purchase your tickets online and glide right through the station like a high-speed locomotive.

🚂 Dallas, this is your official boarding call! 🚂

Do you hear that distant “choo choo” echoing across the prairie? That’s not your coffee maker… that’s the World’s Greatest Hobby on Tour / Great Train Show pulling into the station!
So press your overalls, and start gathering passengers—because on March 28 (10a–4p) and March 29 (10a–4p) the rails are leading straight to Dallas Market Hall (2200 N Stemmons Fwy, Dallas, TX 75207).

The Aunt Heidi’s Toys crew will be there too… probably running trains, blowing bubbles like an overworked steam engine, and causing just enough rail yard mischief to keep things interesting. If something whistles, rolls, or bubbles… there’s a decent chance it was us. 😄

Huge operating model train displays in all kinds of sizes and scales—tiny trains, big trains, and everything in between!

Kids play area where little engineers can get hands-on with trains.

And the crowd favorite… a FREE Thomas the Tank Engine riding train for kids!
This family-friendly train extravaganza is pulling into the station for one weekend only. Plenty to see, lots to do, and more train fun than you can shake a signal flag at.

🚂 Grapevine… are you ready to choo-choo-choose fun? 🚂

The engines are getting pampered, the tracks are getting polished, and somewhere a tiny conductor is yelling, “ALL ABOARD!” because Train-a-Palooza is rolling into town!

On March 14th (10am–5pm) and March 15th (10am–3pm), the 12th Annual Model Train Show pulls into the station at the beautiful Grapevine Convention Center (1209 Main St.)

And let’s be clear — you do not want to be the person sadly waving a handkerchief from the platform because you missed it. 😄

We’re talking:
Model train layouts in more gauges than your uncle’s garage workshop.
Train-themed toys that will have kids (and let’s be honest, adults) wide-eyed!
Sales tables packed with treasures you didn’t know you “needed” until now.

And whatever you do, don’t forget to hunt down my good buddy Skip from Choo Choo Express. He’ll be running his legendary trackless train — which means you can take a spin without worrying about switching tracks or knowing anything about railroading whatsoever. Just hop on and embrace your inner conductor.

So grab your crew, practice your best “choo choo,” and come experience a weekend that’s full steam ahead with tons of fun. 🚂
Meet you at the trains soon!!
