Hi Folks,
I don't recall seeing an announcement anywhere on the forum, so I thought I would post this, as abbreviated from an online obituary (http://www.legacy.com/obituari...y.aspx?pid=176089288):
"Charles Bryant Bussinger, 79, of Fort Washington, PA, died on October 8, 2015 at Abington Hospice, Warminster. Charles was born in Philadelphia on July 10, 1936 to the late John and Claire (Mlynczak) Bussinger. Charles, (Charlie or Mr. B), was the owner of Bussinger Trains in Ambler for over 20 years."
I had only recently "discovered" this store and didn't know Mr. Bussinger personally, but it's always sad when someone in the community passes on. I stopped by the shop last night and was told plans are to keep the store open and in the family. As previous posts have described, they sell mostly MTH and are located in the old Ambler train station. It's a quaint location that is packed to the gills with inventory and even features a small, multi-track demo layout complete with a "Main Street." Believe me when I tell you, if you can get an operating o gauge layout in there, you can pretty much do it anywhere!
With condolences to his friends and family,
Jim
