Portland Oregon 2 shops come to mind... Vics Hobby Shop, in business since the 1940s when a guy named Vic owned it, Leo has it now. You will find N thru G, detail parts and bot 2 and 3 rail in O. If your into 2 rail O scale, PLEASE ask to see the layout in the basement. On Saturdays you will meet several of the locals running trains. Whistlestop Trains has a very nice selection in all the scales and is a 'trains only' shop where you can get good modeling advice, or brouse the brass. I model in On3 and find that my scale is poorly represented, but with only about 4 of us in the region, it's easy to understand why! However, standard gauge O scales will find pleny to choose from. Of course, N and HO and G are well represented. My husband is into postwar Lionel, and Vics often has consigned or inventoried Lionel items. Portland and the 'greater' surrounding area has some other shops, check the yellow pages and call them to see if your interests are stocked. 2 hours and 15 minutes south of here, just south of Eugene, is the Village Depot in Cottage Grove Oregon. These guys have a nice shop, and even some On3!!! .....and a nice website.
