<p>"Serious" model railroaders will never admit they are playing with trains, but operate them. I confess I am playing with them. When running a train on my layout, I put myself into the engineer´s seat, so for me, it is a kind of role play, just for the fun of it.  Like many folks of my generation, I wanted to be an engineer as  a young kid, commanding the iron horse, but life made me turn towards a different profession. In my "play" I am re-enacting this childhood dream.</p>
