Lets see, I once worked for 2 years on a dinner train (part time-weekends) I worked up from carman/labor to assistant conductor to mechanical conductor. When I found out that the dinner train company was going belly up, I drove out to the yard, and walked around in a foot of fresh snow and shot off 4 or 5 rolls of film, documenting and sketching interior plans and car info. Even though much of the work was hard, and I typically put in 22-26 hours a weekend, it was the best part time job you could ever have. <br />Shortly after the company broke up, I started modeling the dinner train. Now the set is 90% complete. (3 more cars to go!) I can now relieve those crazy, fun, and exhausting days whenever I want, without going out in the hot sun, freezing sleet or driving rain. <br />Yes, I was affected.[;)]
