What Really Keeps People From This Hobby?

My barriors were space, geeks, relativeness, availability, and expense. <br />Point to point layouts addressed space, geeks are enthusiast who've forgotten to speak English or recognize its time to change the topic, finding my town is served by branch-line made it relative, Internet and catalogs addresses the availability for us folks in the stickers and expense is an excuse to not get started. The only cheap hobby is streaking. <br />What got me back in was the wife got a Harry Potter train set and wanted it set up, the 'How does it work or when did it change' question for mechanics, engineering, scheduling, history, and the discovery that even big railroads have simple loops (Spokane has at least two). <br />I'mstill on the fence about joining a club and the barriors are time, expense, geeks, relativeness.
