Gee, Scott! Sure sorry to hear about Railyard Hobby closing! I was a frequent customer back when I lived in Blacksburg. It was a bit of a haul to get to Roanoke, but usually was a pleasant and scenic drive.
Also very sorry to hear about what may happen to the club layout. Please keep me posted on this!
That is bad news, that store was always a fun stop on the way to football games. Good wishes to Scott and the Roanoke train folks.
My guess is that Allan was driving on 460 before I-81 was finished! Both are scenic though.
