This is a question worthy of plenty of thought and reflection. Just like some of you guys I have a son too, he will be 3 this Friday. He took to all things trains like a duck to water, when he sits with me and we look at the latest MR magazine, flick through a catalogue, or run a loco round the track he's as quiet and calm yet bright eyed as ever I've seen him. A friend asked me the other day what I personally got out of the hobby and I explained haltingly with words and phrases like "nostalgia" "a romance with the past" "fascination with the frontier of travel by rail and steam", "boyhood memories of rail travel" “etc. Then I thought more and said "It's just a happy place to be". <br /> <br />Andre <br /> <br />
