I have to say I agree MAbruce. I saw the adverts for "Take your trains to work day" in MR magazine, and thought much the same thing. While I agree we need to encourage more people into the hobby, I also suspect that anyone taking model trains into their office (and trying to show them off to co-workers) is likely to be ridiculed. I'm not sure if there's a different perception of model trains in the US, but in Britain there's a definate public attitude problem. Mention to your non-modeller friends that you're into model trains and you'll get very odd looks at best. Luckily, as I tend to hang around with computer geek types I don't have this problem!
