"Overthinking": It's a way of life for me. I'm am one. Pays off handsomely at times, other times it's a pain.
However, in the case of my model railroading, I enjoy the research and I enjoy coming up with something that is plausible to me mentally. Obviously, it's not for everyone, but I sure enjoy it.
I also enjoy seeing my model railroading concepts come to life in miniature via my KC&G theme.
