Reply to "Model Railroading & Soothing Stress"

Arnold you need to stay working if you were retired full time no telling what kind of intriguing questions or topics you would post on this Forum. At 69 with 25 yers of Federal Service and not thinking about retirement(wife sewing hobby and my trains would not let me). As TomTee posted she is Queen of the first floor and I am King of the best floor in the house. I spend most all my indoor time in the basement, sometimes working on the layout(still running wires), servicing locomotives, buying them of that auction site ( TrainZ mostly) hanging out on this forum or just sitting and taking in the entire room and it does relieve my stress level immensely while listening to my collection of music and it runs the gambit from Big Band, Jazz, Blues, Classic Rock County Frank Sinatra(a lot of it).  Sometimes I am reading a lot of train books/magizines and history WWII mostly. I would love to steal your Forum sign off :

In my little world, I leave this troubled world behind" as that is what I do. Also send Western Maryland RR photos to Mark  anonymously (by mistake not realizing when sent from my phone it is not signed as an email is).

Arnold keep up the intriguing thought provoking topics and if working still is satisfying then keep doing as I am. Besides we need to do something to pay for this VERY EXPENSIVE Addiction we all have and I have several framed signs that talk to just that "Addiction" and she signed a prenuptial that she can be replaced but the trains can't be! That was almost 40 years ago and we both still laugh about that. Just remember "He who dies with the most toys wins". As the T Shirt I picked up at anArron Tippen Concert several years back with he photo and a Stearman Airplane stating "The only difference between men and boys are the size of their toys" or in our case price of those toys.



PS: Love the video and song have listened to it several times.
