In threads such as these, I frequently see it mentioned that the hobby is "aging". I'm new to the hobby as of last year at the age of 44. Could it be that the hobby isn't aging so much as it's just a hobby for old guys? And as such, aren't there more old guys like me coming along all the time? Hopefully, I'll be around another 30-40+ years to be an old 3-railer. Hopefully, the manufacturers are here too. As a new-old guy, everything Lionel or MTH offers is a "new locomotive" (to me).
