St Cloud, MN Those of you who have responded from the Minneapolis area, I would like to know where a decent LHS for HO is in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. St Cloud doesn't offer much and I've been to about three locations in the Minneapolis area and wasn't impressed.

Bardstown,KY. Local RR is RJ Corman. We have My Old Kentucky Dinner Train along with occasional short line trains.(I rarely see them. ) It used to be a branch of the L&N. If you go to the south end of our county you will find the Kentucky Railway Museum,which has old L&N equipment,like the No. 152 Steam Engine(I can't remember what kind it is.)
