After seventy seven years in business, English's Model Railroad Supply in Montoursville, Pa. will be closed by the end of the year. Lew and Shirlee English began selling trains, accessories and supplies from their home in Sunbury, Pa. Relocating to Montoursville, about thirty five miles northwest of Sunbury, over fifty-five years ago, they opened a retail outlet on the first floor of their large apartment. Trains of all gauges (N, TT, to G were available. The English's purchased molds and dies from several manufacturers and marketed a complete line of HO trains by the Bowser Manufacturing Company. They also sold trains used trains and those manufactured by virtually all of the toy and model railroading community. One of the most comprehensive model railroading stores and train business anywhere, prices have now been reduced 20% on everything. The goal is to clean out to the bare walls, right down to the shelves, cases, racks, you name it. Pre-orders will be honored. If you have questions, or seek greater detail, feel free to call (570) 368-2516 and speak with manager Richard Cox or tech Vern Trego.
