For those whom live in Wisconsin, and have heard of Popes Hobbyland in Wausau, they will be closing their doors come November 30,2013.Opened in 1963,Popes Hobbyland was a great place to go and buy the best of the best in model railroading supplies. It was a general hobby shop that carried all kinds of merchandise for every hobby imaginable. Now after 50 plus years of selling high-quality hobby merchandise, Warren Pope, the owner of the hobby shop, is retiring from the business. On a personal note here, I think alot of this has to do with the Hobby Lobby store, that opened up last year on Rib Mountain Drive, in Rib Mountain.
