THought I'd post some pictures of English's train shop in Montoursville, PA. I managed a visit a few weeks ago visiting the wife's family for Christmas. If you're ever in the area, it's worth a visit.

| I just got one of their new C430s. Ordered a DC loco and in the box was a DCC/Sound unit by mistake. Score! I'm not a big sound guy but for free I'll take it.

You might not be correct. Who would spend the money to reproduce a Marx? It's either highly restored ( most likely ), or one hell of an original. But I doubt it's a copy. But, could be wrong.

Its' one of the few places left that cater "mostly" to train guys. There detailing section was huge at one time, they've changed it around since I was there last, but they still have a huge selection of items. Definitely NOT your typical model train shop! Glad I could share my experience there with the Forum.
