Bart,
So far they haven’t asked me if I play with trains. :lol: :lol:
They don’t have to ask me…I have shirt that says so on the back…
Ken, :lol: :lol:
Well good for you!
A friend of mine took his wife-to-be to one of the model railway shows. She was quite taken aback by the people - funny hats, coveralls, sweaters with flashing crossbucks and some of the oddest looking kids running hither and yon.
After they left the show she said to him: “If those people are representative of the train crowd, you need to change your hobby or we’re not getting married. Who could take the responsibility for having kids like that!”
Wellllllllll they did get married, he’s still in the hobby and they have a cute girl who is interested in trains. I sure laughed when he related the “dilemma” to me!
Oh BTW in this house, if I’d like to go by myself to one of the train events, all I need do is dig out my engineer’s hat with the “Algoma Central” crest or wear a cowboy hat.
