Train Collector or Train Runner?

Run HO on my own layout. It's always there and on time.

Running HO on what I've gotten finished on my layout, but I have a lot of 120.3 waiting to go out side. The wife has a lot of N to be put on a layout we are assembling together : .)

Running HO on my layout, although more is currently being stored (built or not) with the hopes of running later once my layout gets big enough to hold more of it.

I have some N stuff that I bought with the intention of building an HOn30 layout before I got bit by the trolley bug. I still have plans for it but since I have it with the express intention of hacking it up into HOn30 critters, I don't think one would call it "collecting" even though it doesn't currently run.

I believe one more category should be included in "Collect" or "Run" that being "Hoarders" It seems some people think collecting and hoarding are the same, they are certainly not.
