Menards is relatively new to my area and they're supposed to build a 2 level store fairly close to me - that should be interesting. I like Menards a lot and have placed several special orders with them and had better results than at the other 2 big box hardware stores. I dragged my wife in after the grand opening and she had low expectations based on their slightly cheesy tv ads. Her jaw dropped and I think we spent the next 2 hours in the store. She awarded bonus points for the Sprecher's.
I did notice that around the holidays they had Lionel sets which I thought was interesting. I didn't see any of the buildings or individual boxcars. They had some scenery.
I was just in there yesterday!
Hi Frisco Tim,
You are absolutely right. Some items should start appearing in stores closer to the holiday season. Unfortunately, it's hard to predict what train stuff will be available when that time comes.
