I enjoy building (assembling) kits for my model railroad. At this time, I don't yet have my layout built and am waiting for warmer weather and longer days so I have more daylight in which to do so. Since my layout is going to be in a shed, rather than in the house, I am spending some of my winter evenings building the models that will go on the layout. I'm with a few of the others who feel that the building or assembly of the kits is a major part of the hobby that we thoroughly enjoy. That's not to say that running our trains is not fun. I personally enjoy building things as much as I do using the things I've built. Seeing the result of the work I've done is one of the most satisfying parts of this hobby (and several others) for me. I don't think I would like to run my trains on a layout that was built for me nearly as much as running them on one I built myself. There's just more satisfaction for me in knowing that I built it! <br />-Joe
