If there is not a train shop there called "Chattanooga Choo Choo" then someone missed a great opportunity. 
I’m surprised Al Kolis hasn’t responded by now so let me pinch-hit for him. I can’t answer your question about O gauge train stores in Chattanooga but in the middle of July there will be plenty of O gauge trains there at the Chattanooga Choo-Choo Hotel for a few days as that is the site for the 2013 LCCA Convention.

I'm sure that name is already taken.
