DEALING WITH NEIGHBORS

[Chompers]

None of my neighbors do that stuff, then again the only kid my age in the neighborhood has a train too so...

All the other neighbors always ask how the train is doing and i tell them it's almost done. for 2 years now. 1 step forward 1 and a half backwards.

Having one of these on your layout might solve the problem.[;)]

Those types of people make me so mad! Luckily I have no problems, my layout is in the backyard, fenced backyard. I think some of you guys should have a talk with some of these kids and their paretns because if you dont, I will! hehe!

I have a fenced in yard and a small dog and the next door neighbor's children (girl) thru rocks at my MTH Challenger last year, the children are still not even school age.

I live in a cul-de-sac and the neighbors haven't bothered me at all. My layout sits back off the road and I have a pile of gravel that hides it from view. I even have a swimming pool that noone seems to know is there. I can play with my trains in utter privacy.

One of the side effects of "civilization" I guess. I'm too much of a nut case for any of my neighbors to even think about doing anthing. Once I even got accused of forcing people to move out of the area, OK, I'll let everybody think that [}:)]

My best advise is to put up a fence, out of sight-out of mind (or "invisible and insane" as translated into Arabic). Good luck!

i cannot stand people like that. when i put mine in, i will make sure that i add something extra to prevent any damage from other people. At the Morris arboreuteum, kids climb on the rocks, and sometimes pu***rains off the bridges. I have to sometimes pick up the engine or car, and luckily they have not been ndamaged.

I have neighbors who stomp on the track and others who poop all over the place! Seems that Mr. Remington is the only person those deer listen to! Groundhogs, raccoons, and possums (along with the occaisional skunk & blacksnake) get a seranade from Mr. Ruger! Keeps the turkey buzzards happy!

Be glad you only have to deal with it on your GR.
At a culdesac party the kids almost destroyed all of my trains.
I feel for ya.

My neighbors are annoying too. One of the flooded a section of my track and the other's kids keep throwing their ball over the fence and wrecking scenery. You've got to wonder where the parents are. If I had done that when I was a kid (which wasn;t too long ago), my dad would have gave me something to cry about.

Today I am sitting at home and a kid rings the doorbell wanting me to play
I said wafter awhile so HE tries to climb in the windows
I l;ock and he seems to go
here his voive and come outside
Evidently I forgot to unplug the power pack and there he was with his brother the engine was derailed on the trestle and the COaches were leaned vertically aginst a tree trunk
It seems there are so many stupid kids LIKE ME these days who cant not keep of someone elses "Toy"
Oh well
