Nashville Hobby Shops - Model Railroader Magazine

The Tennessee Central RR Museum Hobby Store is the only model train store I'm aware of in the Nashville area.  The actual store footprint is small but you can buy most staples (track, cork, joiners, wheels/trucks, some turnouts, KD's Goo, paint, some freight cars, etc. off the rack.  Also a rotating variety of donated items - cheap!  The store is only open Saturdays 10 AM to 2 PM.

Locals join the Museum, memberships are $35 per year (IIRC), and receive a 25% discount on most anything out of the Walthers catalog, delivered to the store for your pickup (no shipping costs to you).  Best deal in town.  

The Museum Building also houses two layouts, HO & N scales.   

The restoration of NC&St.L 4-8-4 No. 576, more than 60% complete, is on-site.
