Finding "YOUR" Hobby Shop.

Hey Lane,
Sound like you found what could be your personal LHS. My daughter is going to be Road Tripping in June to her roomates home in Ashville,NC. If you give me the address I can have her check the place out. Is this guy on line and whats the name of his business? Thanks for sharing it sounds cool.:thumbsup:

If this Yankee makes the trip south I would prefer to a little white lighting instead of the beer. Though beer could be used to wash it down.:laugh:

Does he have a web site?
My local shop has been in business since 1936.

My state has a lot of hobby shops to shop at.

Used to have a little white lighting up in Robbinsville NC. (After the locals determined that I was not an undercover revenuer.)
After I partied with them they used to call me Damn Yankee when I made the trip down.
When I delivering to the Bear Creek Scenic RR in the seventies.
Talk about pink elephants..................:laugh:

he does not have a website(old dude) its only about 10 miles off of 85/40 so its pretty conveneint to folks just passin threw.

the train shop is seperate from the hobby shop(just around the corner) if hes not at one hell be at the other theres a sign in the door that says where hes at.
