Shipment Processing Time
For over 15 years all of Railroadware’s unique lighting, hardware or gifts are custom and made to order. We process an order within 1-3 days of purchase. We assemble & produce the order generally within 7 days of the order or the following week. If an issue arises with your order a member of our team will reach out to you via email. Orders are processed Monday through Friday and most are shipped within 3-7 days of purchase. During times of high volume such as Christmas, delays are expected. Custom orders may involve locating or ordering additional parts which will be communicated to the customer.
Shipping costs are calculated based on weight size etc. and can add up especially on multiple product orders. We explain this on each order template that shipping costs will be reviewed and refunded if they are out of variance or excessive. Please notify us if there is any issue with online shipping charges.
