Looking for a hobby shop in or near Avon Lake, Ohio - Model Railroader Magazine

underworld,

The one on Detroit that cnw4001 mentioned is called Wings Hobby. Al is the owner and Betsy helps out behind the counter. They are nice folks. Wings has a nice selection of HO & N scale items - usually about 10% off MSRP. They also have a terrific selection of reference books and magazines - practically one entire side of the store! Wings Hobby is located in Lakewook - just east of Avon Lake. You can get at it off of I-90. Their address/phone # is:

17112 Detriot Avenue
(216) 221-5383

The other good LHS near there is called Depot Train & Hobby. They are off of I-71, east on W. 130th. Good store but doesn't have quite the selection as Wings. It's too bad that Jim won't be there at Depot Train. He's the resident expert about trains there and REALLY knows his stuff. Everytime I visit, I always walk away having learned something new. Depot Train & Hobby's address/phone # is:

4342 E. 130th Street
(216) 252-8880

Anyhow, hope that works out for you.

Tom
