Yes, some of these topics are not directly train related, or are they? The Made In China topics, while starting off talking about modelrailroading manufacturers matured into a very intersting economic discussion. I personally think that this is very interesting as our hobby can be a microcosm of society as a whole, including economics. If where our trains are made induces one student to learn more about international trade and the like, then isn't it a good thing? The voting topic is interesting also. It is very obvious that upon reading the posts that our hobby is made up of a diverse group of people. I think that's good also (and our political leadership can determine where future mrr products come from - ie: 30 years ago dealing with China would not have been possible). <br /> <br />Are they off topic? Maybe. But when clubmembers sit around and shoot the bull - are they spending 100 percent of their time talking trains?
