Well, sh!t... must be siesta time. I'll just tip-toe back out.
Sorry, saw a facebook sidebar for a big model train shown this
weekend in Edison, NJ. just navigated back.
If you like model trains, have you ever been to Northlandz, north of Flemington on Rt. 202?
I like model trains, but I have found that the opinion of
the husband/father is not necessarily that of management
in my house(or in the car near Flemington either!).
I did propose we go once, but was quickly outvoted 2 to one.
My Dad and youngest brother are into trains. All I can say is, no matter what scale/gauge you prefer, it still takes up a shitload of room in a basement.
I don't have any trains but like watching them operate, they are really neat I think.
I remember playing with an old antique set my dad passed down to me, so awesome to set that up around the whole house and watch it go!
There are several Lionel sets in the attic, some from my
younger days,(circa 1962) some i collected along the way,
a disney set or two, a hogwarts set(British trains look good with
the wife's Dickens Village ceramic houses. I have passed on to my two
older children their trains, my son sold his(wish he had told me
I would have bought them back!).
