I've never stopped in, mostly due to the parking situation, and the time of day.  I usually pass through in the early a.m. or late at night.

Andy: That’s a great shop, or at least it was the last time I was there about 10 years ago.  The store is a lot larger then it looks from the street front as it extends quite a bit to the back, as if there were several rooms added on to the original house.  The owner is Don Carver, a TCA member, and he is very friendly and helpful.  He specializes in Marx but also had a lot of postwar Lionel and Flyer when I was there.  I was very happy to be able to find the missing pieces for my original Marx wind-up set when I visited there.

 

It was definitely worth a stop back then.  As I recall I parked on the street right at the curb in the front of building just like that minivan in the photo. 

 

HTH,
