Looks like the younger generation is the majority,

From 4 to 65 with 15 teens plus a few that would still like to be a teen.

It's a good showing, don't you think ANDY?

Still too old for Britany Spears, and still too young for Rachel Welch!


Hmm but if I add up the two Olsen Twins, 18 + 18 = Hmmmm????? Not too far off?

   Have fun with your trains

Will be 67 on May 15th. Have been model railroading since 1949. Good to see the large number of young people who are involved. Hope they all stay at it for as long as me.

I'm 26, started at age 7 or so with my dad, but haven't done it for at least the past 12 years. So glad I'm back in it (the wallet isn't though).

55 and feeling it right now!

Today is our equivalent of a veterans day. There have been too many wars that I can remember, although not being involved directly right up to now.

I'll get over it!

I am 61.

Too old for many things....Luckily, most of them I don't remember...

Stll too young for the seniors' discount at the drugstore.

Major problem: I have apparently become allergic to beer. I used to have no problem with it, but now, after 17-18 beers, I usually throw up ! [xx(]

Never get old ! [:(]
