Hey, stop on by and we can go out to lunch.
I'm at 313 2nd Avenue East. That's towards Harrison
park on the main street, and it's on your left as

Give me a call (519) 376-6885 and we can arrange things.
I can probably buy a DCC controller locally, I'm more
interested in buying a train chassis and smal loop without
all the bricks so I can fly it under the spousal radar :-)
Cheers, Ralph

It may be a big upgrade so I might be there all day and have no time for lunch (that's how it usually works, anyway) but after I'm done, I'll be either driving to Port Elgin or crashing in a (...)
