I visited the Train Store in Marion, NC this past week. It's gone! Just an empty building. Did he relocate or gone for good?

I was just looking through a Model Railroader magazine at NC model train shops that are advertising, and I swear I saw the Marion, NC one listed (rustle, rustle, rustle...) Yeah, August 2014, 93 South Main street, Exit 81, Corner of Henderson and Main, formerly Old Fort (fart?) Model Trains. So they were still advertising at that address at least 3 months ago, before that issue was published. They can go so quickly....

Yep, I saw that ad in MR, also. I looked for a notice in the window that might indicate where he might have moved to but, nothing. Empty. He had a pretty decent inventory. Bought a few things from him. Hobby shops are a tough row to hoe.

Facebook page has nothing either, although it does note "permanently closed" in the details section.
