The stuff I learned the hard way as a teenage model railroader influenced me too greatly in real life. I can recall the mysteries of electricity - trying to wire something on my layout, I had to figure out how to wire a toggle switch. I used some of this knowledge just yesterday when I replaced the fan in our bathroom that I had previously installed. You'd be surprised how many people don't have a clue how a simple on-off switch works. <br /> <br />Other hobbies don't seem to have the depth of abilities we can (hopefullY) learn through model railroading - carpentry, painting, electricity, repairing mechanical things, artistry, photography, etc. <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau, always learning!
