Geocache Description:


You are looking for a nano type of container. But it should be very apparent where it is, hence the easy rating.

Take a look at the mural on the wall. It was painted with Engine House Hobbies moved from across the street into this building. This store was amazing. It was huge, with a small deli in the back, and several running trains around the walls of the room and another on a large layout at the back of the shop. It was a favorite of my kids when they were young and we could spend an hour in here just looking at trains.

After a few years, the landlord decided to up the rent on Big John's shop by 50%. He told me the landlord said he had other offers. Big John moved his shop across the street and this building has remained empty. The mural has been defaced, but it still is impressive. Notice the famous movie character waiting on a train?

This would be a virtual, but since they are no longer around I was lucky to find a spot.

If you get a chance, stop by either Engine House Hobbies or the Science Education Center. Both are local jewels for hobby enthusiasts and a welcome break from ToysRUs.
