Hi folks,
Just got back from Wichita, KS. While I was there, I decided to visit the only HO train hobby shop that I know of in that city: EngiNe HOuse Hobbies. It's a tiny store. There are a couple of elderly gentleman running the place. Next to it, is a Lionel train repair shop. Fairly well stocked with some name brand diesels and rolling stock. Athearn and on up. Can't think of the names of the manufaturers but, it was quality items. There was one cabinet with some used rolling stock. They had some nice buildings, used, low prices. But, unless I mailed them home in a box I just didn't have room in my bag to take them home. I did buy a Mini-Metals Trailways bus and a few diesel detail parts. The mural was on a building across the street.


Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.

Nice mural on the building. I once had a photo of an F7 or F9 that looked as if it had crashed thru a building (or home - can't remember)

A few feet of the engine front sticking out with loose bricks , etc , laying around the damaged opening...

Anyone, have a copy of that photo ?

Luck, usually comes dressed in work clothes...
