My wife got me back into trains four years ago. She said it was time to get ready for the grand kids. She bought me 16 ft of fast track as it would run on our carpet. I had blocked out my need to collect and run trains in the interest of raising our family and taking care of all the house hold needs. But I took down from the attic the 40 year old trains I had collected when we first married and started to relearn about O gauge system. Today about 10K later my wife wishes she had left this Pandora box securely closed.......

I like the two cartoons posted at Mile Post 38 our local train store.

"My only fear, is when I die my wife will sell my trains for what I told her I spent on them...."

" My wife told me as I went out the door this morning, if you come home with another train I'm leaving.......I am sorely going to miss her......"

All jokes aside my wife has been a sweetheart in her support of my addition.

Cheers!
