King of the Rails- Trail
the History of Railroads & Model Railroading
Many have been wondering where are the model
trains we have been hearing about?
Things have been progressing for our first station to
appear in King NC. Our first
storefront will be at Gullion’s Christian Supply Center
in King (607 S Main St, King, NC 27021) Our first track
is now officially open.
Our second location will be in downtown Mt. Airy at
Prudence McCabe Confections. (192 N Main Street
Suite 400 Mount Airy, NC 27030) A map of where
each location will be at can be picked up at each
station, it is printed below with our projections.. Each
location can be found at a small business who has
agreed to allowing us to have their front window, the
trains will pass in front of window then back into the
store for others to see.
How will the “King of the Rails
Trail” be funded?
With a project like this, there will be costs related for
upkeep. There will be a donation box if you feel you
would like to do that, but there is no obligation, We
want all children to come as often as they like. There
will be buttons that they can press to operate the trains
and more. Anyone interested in donating trains can
contact David Eriksen at 336.480.4519. Any donations
in a check form can be written to Foothills Times and
sent to PO Box 1038 King, NC 27021.If you are
interested in learning more about this project, feel free
to contact myself at [email protected].
