Welcome to East Tennessee Andy!

About the best we have around here IMHO in the Knoxville area is Hobby Town. Two things that work with that store are they are supportive of the Knoxville Area Model Railroaders club by offering a discount for all members and, they are also open to custom ordering items.

I too do most of my shopping on-line but sometimes a trip to the ole brick and mortar store is still worth it. I just returned from my home town of Seattle for Christmas but had time to visit three of my favorite (exclusively) train shops out there. There's nothing in this end of the state that can compare to what these stores offer. So it goes!
