Holy Moly! Model Train Shop In the Old LaudryMat Spot
Photo via Facebook. Original here . Via the Frankfort Station comes this news that there's a Lionel O Gauge Hobby Shop called Choo Choo Works that has sprung up in Frankfort. That's cool and all. But it is in the location of a place that was a big part of my childhood: the (as I called it) Laundrymat. More photos here on Facebook via this guy and this guy who I believe are involved/own in the shop (and the custom car shop next door). This is a weird collision of concepts and places that brings a HUGE smile to my face. My Dad is smiling too, I bet.
