I think it likely there is "some" connection between what is seen in your youth and what you enjoy. However, I never saw a square rigged ship or world war one fighter and love both of these things. I have more than a passing interest in the Civil War, the Titanic and many other things. I'm 54 and can just bearly remember steam in the US. I was amazed that steam was still in us in Germany when I was there in the early 70s. I am more interested in steam engines than diesel. They have side rods, con. rods and valve gear that draw my attention! However, I find that diesels (like the prototype) generally operate better and are less maintenance. To argue one over the other is not something I'm going to spend any time doing.
