I had no idea. Ive been in the area for 19 years and never knew there was a model train store there.
Also, I went to the Hobbytpwn in Tukwila and found a 1/32 scale VW beetle. This was the exact car in the same color that my parents had. It is the car that they brought me home from the hospital when I was born. I have a plate from the same year and the correct County I green up in, that I had bought on eBay recently. My plan is to take a photograph of that, make a decal out of it in that scale, and put in on there.
Great idea there Lee, before we moved to hoodsport, we lived in Burien and that is where I bought my first O gauge train from West Seattle Electric trains. Then when it moved to there new location in Burien it was great, they were only 3 blocks from my house. I had to make a once a week trip to see if anything was new I could afford!
