"Tony's Hairstop barbershop is here. Tony is a great guy and does a great job making me "presentable" again. He pays attention to your requests and executes it flawlessly."

"we enjoy eating at Two Brothers Roundhouse in part because of the historical significance of the building. The roundhouse itself is intact with little reminders of his past history if you look closely. The original locomotive turntable has been replaced with a Gazebo and a lovely outdoor dinging area. Each of the original train bays have track endings projecting out, and if h you check in a couple of places where there is no ceiling you will see an old pulley or two. There is an exhibit in the railroad station that has a photographic history of the railroad and the roundhouse."
