The Gomez Store

The Gomez Store This kit is based on Ruben G. Gomez’ General Merchandise store in Pagosa Junction, near the borders of Colorado and New Mexico.  Constructed in 1910, it is typical of many small general stores built to accommodate travelers throughout the West.  Similar structures can be found along many of the early highways in California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado an Utah. We have provided components for constructing the complete store as it existed in the 2000, including the boardwalk and gas pump. We have shortened the building by 25 feet to adapt to typical model railroading needs. The front boasts clapboard siding, and the sides have sheet-metal siding embossed with a brick pattern. The roof is corrugated iron. To give your building an individual look, you can use the pre-printed “RUBEN G. GOMEZ” sign, or letter your own–using the blank we have provided. A sheet of printed signs is also included. The building will fit on a 5.6″ x 7.25″ footprint — Product No. 5909 — Quantity:1 — Exterior Measurement: NA — Fits Within: NA — Additional Notes: Products may contain small parts and should be kept safely away from small children. Minimum recommended age for customers is fourteen years old. Colorado customers will pay Colorado tax sales tax.
