There is always endless potential in this hobby. Always something else to investigate and learn about. Carpentry, tracklaying, model building, weathering, electronics, scenery, historical research and more. Atlhough sometimes these things can be frustrating at time (it took me forever to get good at soldering rail) I get a tremendous sense of personal accomplishment when I finally get it (of course scenery has been my monster in the closet for nearly 20 years now! but I'll get it down someday!). <br /> <br />As I get older I have also realized another great thing about model railroading, or any hobby for that matter. My personal observation is that those that have a hobby that is truly engaging of the mental and manual skills seem to look forward to retirement and when retired seem to live longer and happier lives. Has anyone else noticed this?
