    Did anyone else notice that the Port of Hollywood was going out of business effective August 31?

    Florida? I thought that was for cruise ships?

    That's bad news indeed, I've always had good service from them with quick shipping to England.
    They were a great source for intermodal. :(

    That is bad news. They seemed to be going from strength to strength, with lots of special run items, etc. Mark was a stockist of some of my intermodal equipment. Wondered why I had not heard from him lately.

    Mark is a nice guy to work with.

    It's official, we just picked up their special run containers from deLuxe.

    Appears as though they were only going for few yrs?

    Maybe wasnt what they hoped it would be as in profit margins?

    Always a bumma when a store closes. theres not really enough around (well here anyway) that support N Scale. HO is like bums really, every store has it.

    YMMV.
