Reply to "Master Model Railroader"

Arnold, 

Great topic! I have seen similar topics but not with the idea of “toy-like” trains. It would be very interesting since there are many who have great layouts with these features. Not to mention it is a popular facet of the hobby.

It amazes me how your topic as well as others have started debate and personal feelings when I’m sure that wasn’t the intent. Maybe my interpretation of the topic is inaccurate. The topic was not “What do you think about the MMR award”. It would be great to just have a post stay positive and not be riddled with unincouraging words because of opinion. I guess that’s the world we live in. I learned a long time ago if you can’t say anything nice etc. That’s just my 2 cents.

Anyhoo, I think as a member of NMRA if this is something that hobbyists who model this way have a desire for, it wouldn’t hurt to speak to the powers that be. If it truly is an organization for ALL in the hobby then it would be a legitimate aspect of this award or one designated for those who model this way. It certainly would be a great way to promote those who enjoy the nestalgia of model railroading. I agree with the  statement that this hobby has as many interpretations as the people in it. Keep modeling and playing with trains just the way you like everyone and thanks for reading my dissertation. 🙂

Dave
