Item 3. Bankruptcy or Receivership.                                             

         On February 28, 2000, The Great Train Store Company (the  "Registrant")
filed a voluntary petition for protection and reorganization under Chapter 11 of
the  Federal  Bankruptcy  Code in the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Court for the
District of Delaware (the  "Filing").  From that time,  the  Registrant had been
operating  under  the  protection  of the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Code as a
debtor-in-possession  and had been  attempting to obtain bridge and  replacement
financing and to explore other opportunities for the Registrant.                

         On May 18, 2000,  the United States  Bankruptcy  Court entered an order
authorizing,  among other things, that the Registrant (i) discontinue operations
at and liquidate the inventory located at the going-out-of-business  stores, and
(ii) enter into an agency agreement for such liquidation.                       

         On June 23, 2000, the United States  Bankruptcy  Court entered an order
approving  the auction  procedure  for the sale of the  Registrant's  leases and
approving the rejection procedure for termination of the leases not auctioned.  

Item 5. Other Events.                                                           

         On July 7, 2000,  the  Registrant  filed  unaudited  monthly  operating
reports  as of and  for the  month  ended  May  31,  2000  with  respect  to the
Registrant and The Great Train Store Partners,  L.P., GTS Limited Partner,  Inc.
and GTS Partner,  Inc.,  all direct or indirect  subsidiaries  of the Registrant
(the "Subsidiaries") with the United States Bankruptcy Court. Attached hereto as
Exhibit  99.1 are such  monthly  reports as  included in the  bankruptcy  filing
referred to above.                                                              

         To date,  based on the  preliminary  results  of the  liquidation,  the
Registrant  does not expect that the  stockholders of the Company will receive a
distribution as a result of the liquidation.                                    

Item 7.  Financial Statements as Exhibits                                       

(c)      Exhibits                                             

                  99.1  Monthly   operating   reports  of  the   Registrant  and
         Subsidiaries  as of and for the month ended May 31, 2000, as filed with
the United States Bankruptcy Court.
