English Model Railroad Supply Is closing

After 77 years English's Model Railroad Supply is closing.
English's Model RR has been an area fixture as the place in Central Pennsylvania to buy toy trains as well as other hobby supplies including Model Kits and Rockets.
 
 Founded in Sunbury PA, Lew and Shirlee English operated a hobby shop from their home's basement.
 Over the years it grew and eventually found a permanent home in Montoursville PA.
 
 We will be closed this weekend and Monday September 4th for Labor day.
 
 Starting immediately we are offering 20% off all in stock merchandise in the store.
 Everything is for sale including the shelves.
 
 Existing Back orders and advance reservations will be handled through our sister online store www.ToyTrainHeaven.com
 We will continue offer curbside pickup for phone, email or web orders.

Is this the same Lee English, who makes (made, now?) the Bowser Z-scale coupler, a.k.a. here as the LEZ coupler?

Yes, Bowser, Toy Train Heaven, and English Model Railroad Supply are under the same umbrella per say.
Attempting to model a modern Southern Pacific based in 2015/2016...

Also, I have a passenger train addiction...
