QUOTE: Originally posted by dragonriversteel Hello all, At work,I tend to push others to join the model railroading group. I understand that different strokes for different folks saying.But really are other hobbys as cool as model railroading ? Where else can you be a master of your own world ? The best thing about are hobby is you can build,the electrical work,kits,scratch build prototypes and the most rewarding of all......leave all the stress behind. Some people are depend on happy pills,to make them happy. Not me,just give me some kits and I'll build an empire. I mean really .....what a great hobby,in fact its the only hobby that demands nothing in return. I wish I could get my wife and son involved. I even thought about ,building a small layout and taking it to retirement homes,to give the fellows something to enjoy besides Matlock re-runs. Thought about the VFW also or the American legion a small layout. Schools are also a target,so is anywhere else to push others into this hobby. Some of them are bound to embrace model railroading,while others keep shunning it away. Is this to much of a gorillo tactic ? Whats you view on this,I'd like to know what you think ? Patrick
cheers, krump
