F&M Trains and Toys - 233 E Church St
A fairly recent addition to the area, F&M is primarily a shop for hobbyists. The shop opened in 1950 and features a line of electric trains, square-rigged ships, paper biplanes, chessboards, dolls, and wooden and metal toys. F&M's also sells lead figurines and molds, paints, scenery, materials, strong glue, and more. While there are toys, books, and games for children, most of their expensive merchandise is clearly aimed at older individuals with the time and finances to really dedicate to their leisure activities.
Owned and operated by Dean Martelle of Quebec and Clell Flint of Scotland.
F&M's seems innocuous on the surface. Wholesome, even, but the store has a large back room with a scale model of New Jerusalem that’s always being updated to reflect changes in the city. This model could be used for planning purposes, or it’s possible that strange signs and symbols can be found hidden on certain locations corresponding with recent strange happenings in the town. Why Martelle and Flint should create such a detailed model is not apparent, but the two men seem almost religiously dedicated to the project.
