Can someone give me the contact information for a train store I saw while passing through Hanover, PA a week or two ago? My internet search isn't giving me the store's website or any info.

It's been awhile since I lived in Central PA but I'm unaware of a train store in Hanover.
Are you thinking of Tommy Gilbert's in Gettysburg? http://gilbertshobbies.net/

Toy Trains Unlimited on 38 York Street. The Web site never had anything and is now dead. The Facebook page at least gives a phone number. I've always enjoyed the shop and talking with Ron. I believe he is still open but haven't been there since his neighbor (1 or 2 doors up) had a bad fire. If memory serves this was at the beginning of the Corona lockdown.
We stopped at the store downtown maybe 4 years ago. I recall a lot of older stuff at pretty stout prices. There is another just east of town but that was closed when we stopped there. Can't help with names though.

I believe you are looking for Iron Horse Trains. https://ironhorsetrains.biz/
Nice folks. I met them at York last October and got a sweet deal on a MTH RS-1. Smokes like a champ!

Chessie, if you saw the store front while driving past (a block or 2 from the center of town) then I still think it is Toy Trains Unlimited. I just tried the phone number and it/answering machine is active.

Toy Trains Unlimited is correct I talked to him on the phone last week
