Talking Re: Fire at Vancouver Toys R Us

That sucks. Hope the TF section is ok

It's also interesting that Captain Roder was there, that's hot. (ok, cheezy name play joke)

Re: Fire at Vancouver Toys R Us

This is more general chit-chat.

Too bad for the collectors in that area...

I might as well check in today since I'll be in the area. I didn't know Leaders were going to be on sale...

Re: Fire at Vancouver Toys R Us

so now this TRU store can be nicknamed Chaar?

"It is a small, burned-out husk of a store located in distant Fairview-Vancouver, easily mistaken for a smudge on a map"

Re: Fire at Vancouver Toys R Us

anyone know when this store will re-open?

"
A third fire began around 8 a.m. at the Babies ‘R’ Us store in the 1100-block West Broadway, also the site of the landmark Bowmac sign.
“There was a lot of smoke at the site . . . The fire crews initiated a fire attack and put it out very quickly,” said Foster.
A substantial amount of smoke and water has damaged the store.
An electrical malfunction in a light fixture has been determined to be the cause, according to the fire investigator.
