Trains Etc. in Tehachapi to close
Author: Harlock

Trains Etc. is closing on April 30. They are retiring and could not find a buyer.

This is a family and tourist-oriented store with mostly O and G scale stuff. Great owners and the previous owners the Meekers are also wonderful people. Will be missed.

Mostly I was a fan of their used consignment books which often came from local estates.

This will leave a big hole downtown - it was perfect having a model train shop across the street from the depot - a great combo for visiting railfans.

Most recently I bought a car builder's cyclopedia reprint and a transformer for my Christmas tree layout there. Was nice to have a local source.

What a shame.   I visited back in October 2017 and was impressed.

That is always a stop when we go to Tehachapi. My boys love the store. Sad
