We pretty much sold off both pallets and Woodland Scenics offered us another dozen at the same price so we could finish the orders we had. I can still sell ten more at the sale price before we are all out so come and get them! Thank you! 

 

I'd love to sell the rest of these BEFORE I have to send off my check for them. Otherwise all the Muffin's are getting one for Christmas! Please order one! Mrmuffinstrains.org/shop 

 

My my original post begins here:

 

Last February we ran a special on two pallets of Woodland Scenics' Ethyl's Gas Station for a little more than our cost, while they lasted. We sold them all in about ten days. Well, we are doing it again - we have two pallets of Woodland Scenic's IGA J. Frank's Grocery Stores coming in. We are offering them FIRST to our OGR Forum Cronies and at the terrific price of $94.96 plus $15 shipping. They're available for your pre-orders now on our website at mrmuffinstrains.org/shop. We expect to be shipping these out by the end of the month - the first week of November at the latest.  

 

We were at the IHobby Show in Chicago last weekend; confirmed our order with Woodland Scenics; and grabbed this shot of their display model.

 

J.Frank's is modeled after the independently owned grocery stores that began sprouting up in the early to mid-1900s and can still be seen today in cities and small towns throughout America.

 

Details and accessories include loading dock w/dolly, large display windows, awnings, a kiddie ride out front and more. The building features printed interior and window treatments. The O Scale version includes two white LED interior lights and one exterior light over loading dock. The interior detailing was amazing. We are planning to add 2 to our layout - we're starting a chain! Okay - maybe 3!

 

Let's see if we can sell all of these in less than 10 days this time!

Actually, I'm getting 2 different dimensions from Woodlands site. The printed descriptions shows the dimensions you gave. But the picture of Frank's, and footprint to right shows dimensions as 9 1/2"wx7 1/2"dx5 7/8"h. That's why I'm asking. Makes a difference.

This is such a cool addition to their building line up!  Every town had or has a small independent grocery store like an IGA.  Creates uses for all your Coke and Budweiser trucks and anything else food related.  Grocery stores are right up there with gas stations and bars, but have been really neglected by our building manufacturers.

We talked with Woodland Scenics Friday, and these arrive at their place today, Monday, 10/27 then on to us. We should receive our two pallets and begin shipping our preorders this week. Still time to get in on it if you want one - or even two! Mrs Muffin is already doing demolition at their location on our layout. 

 

I was was told that the dealer orders have exceeded supply so dealers aren't getting all they ordered in the first shipment. We will still have plenty, so if you want one, go ahead and order online or call it in. 317.569.1999. 

 

I will post more pictures when they arrive. 

 

Steve.

Any more pictures of these on your layout? 

 

I think this building is more weathered than the others. 

 

We we have all of the other Woodland Scenics buildings in stock - just call if you're hunting one.

 

We have about 20 left at the $94.96 price. The local TCA guys took another ten yesterday. 

 

Crazy fun. Glad we could do this. Our thanks to Woodland Scenics!

Josef - did we finally get you taken care of today, or are you still being ignored by us? If we haven't gotten it taken care of, please call the shop or email me and it will be resolved tomorrow, that's Monday, for sure. 

 

Thank you.

Thank you. 

Thank you, all taken care of. Must have been a quirk, but all good. Thank you.
