I once read the book "all aboard" all abouth Joshua Lionel Cowen and his Lionel train company. The author asked himself this question (why he like trains) many times over the years and finally came up with an answer to it all. Someone once came to a conclusion and shared it with him. The friend said "It is not the trains that you want, but what you really want is your father's arm around you" (His father was deceased.) Somehow I identified with this as my father was a model railroader and he is also deceased. Maybe the trains are a way of visiting with him, in a way!
