Looks like it might just be hand drawn for that sign.
You could try http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
to assist in finding something close.

Good luck...

Thanks Larry, yah I had tried out that site before posting here and I am guess it was hand drawn, I ended up just recreating it in Illustrator but it would have been fun to have had the whole alphabet.

That particular one looks hand lettered, but you might check out this set of fonts http://www.houseind.com/fonts/housegothic23/

A couple of them are very close.
