(NYT47) NEW YORK -- Jan. 14, 2003 -- MODEL-TRAINS-2 -- The Red Caboose and its neighbor, Manhattan Train and Hobby, are remnants of what was once a thriving little district catering to model train enthusiasts. At one time, there were five such stores on 45th and 46th Streets, in New York, including one run by a colorful entrepreneur known as Ma Webster that was in the space now occupied by the Red Caboose. The two existing stores are struggling to survive, a reflection of the hobby's waning popularity -- nationally, and not just in New York, where apartments seldom can accommodate the space-devouring displays known as layouts. Allan J. Spitz, left, owner of the Red Caboose, used to employ Ralph Israel, the owner of Manhattan Train. Spitz and Israel at their stores in Midtown Manhattan. (Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times)
