Since I'm more into the 'Modeling' side of Model Railroading, I'm definitely somebody who plays with my trains. Anyway, current pet peeve: Micro-Trains couplers. Ingenious in their design, but obviously designed by an individual or team of sado-masochists whose primary goal is to aid phrmaceutical companies in boosting their blood pressure medication sales. All you need is a Micro-trains coupler 'kit', adult size fingers, middle-aged or older eyesight, and nerves not made of steel, and you can see what hell must be like anytime you're up to it. Oh, and that so called spring loaded assembly jig is nothing more than a launcher for the various sub-atomic sized parts. Guaranteed to turn 'fun' into a cuss word inventing session (my wife can attest to this, her saying: 'It doesn't sound like you're having fun down there!?!?!?') The result is great, but the journey builds character..
