I didn't know there were other hobbies. At least not in my world. Trains is IT for me.

Unfortunately, would have to agree w/Paul, the CB&Q guy.

But if I have to do this, well:

kayaking
Beagle puppy

I can't think of anything else offhand. Pretty dull and boring, huh?

Classic AR speakers (pre 1982), old Onkyo receivers (1977), woodworking, and house.

Was into cars, WWII, etc, but had to give up some things.
Nigel N&W in HO scale, 1950 - 1955 (..and some a bit newer too) Now in San Jose, California

Besides railroading I enjoy reading, cosmology, particle physics, collecting old jazz, pop, R&B, disco, and rock records (ones not available on CD) and transering them to CD-R for my own use, long walks in San Francisco, Sci-fi, having a few beers at the local saloons, and other fun things.

I'm into old farm tractors. Like the ones Athearn makes in N, HO, and now O scale!
Green ones are best!
