I must admit that I almost fell victim to this ‘snobbery’. I'm a toddler to the physical side of this hobby even though I've known and loved it from as far as I can remember (some twenty odd years). <br />Initially I felt that if a loco is not of a particular brand that it's a waste of time and money so I'll just hold out until I could afford a better one. Well guess what? Years went by and I was like the kid on the outside looking in. Eventually I got tired of waiting and I got one from tyco, I enjoyed every second running it, especially at christmas when visitors came over. <br />Age took its toll and then the problems kicked in, instantly I became a repair man (through hours and hours of anguish of course) but in the end I came to understand what makes this little engine tick and today I don't have to send off none of my engines to be fixed. I still have this ‘little-ho-Geep’ even though I now model in n-scale (due to limited space). Maybe if I had succumbed to the notion, I wouldn't have figured out the true reason why I love Model RRing, and remained he kid on the outside looking in.
