I used to take the boys there about once a year when they were young, but hadn't been back for at least 20 years now.  I wonder if they were still playing Kate Smith's God Bless America to the end?

The 85 yo tourist layout in shartlesville PA. Out side Lancaster is closing for good.   Apparently they have been trying to sell it but with some interested parties but no deals were closed.  With covid,  the final,straw.    I am sure though if somebody stepped up to talk sale, they would go for it.  

It was an interesting layout to see.  All handmade with whatever they could find, with imagination. Turn it into a layout item. The grandkids of the builder have gone to retirement with nobody to pass onto.
