[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by rambo1 Watching children touch the layouts or rollingstock at club shows with the parents watching and not saying nothing.I open my mouth!.......... [/quote] I never thought of that one. That would be another one of mine, too! I was at the Regina train show a couple weeks ago and there was this one kid with his grandpa who seemed to want to touch everything. Twice I saw people who had tables there tell the kid to stop. I think a good policy is "you break it-you buy it". If one of these kids ended of knocking a $500 engine off a table and the parents had to pay for it I bet they'd be a lot more careful in the future. I'm still shocked after reading your post, flyingscott! That's horrible! It's amazing how destructive kids can be! I've always been a perfectionist and like to have everyhting in place on my layout. I'd freak and have to be restrained if that happened to me. I admire you for not murdering one of them! When I was a kid there was this toy store in a mall with one of those Brio play tables for kids to use. Whenever I'd go there the trains and stuff would all be thrown around and I'd always put everything back on the rails and make sure everything was nice and neat and in place. This summer I was in Winnipeg and there was a toy store in a mall with one of these. I was sooooooo tempted to put everything back in order on it, but didn't because I'd have looked like an idiot.
