Greatest hobby frustration?

Thu, 2016-07-21 07:19 — joef

I would like to do an MRH reader poll on what your greatest hobby frustration is, but I prefer to list common frustrations to pick from so we can easily tally statistics. Essay answers, while useful, are hard to tally.

So let's develop a list. Start with listing some of YOUR greatest frustrations in the hobby, past or present.

I was looking at DPM's site to check price on a kit and looking at future announcements discovered that they will be offering autos set up for their plug and play system this fall.

Great news for those of us that like to set up our layouts for night scenes as well as daylight operation.

Deep Thoughts

For those of us raised on SNL this title may remind you that all is not so serious. That said, a couple of beers can lead to ponderings regarding time and space. This morning I find this idea cannot be shaken and thought it worthy of conversation.

One Year, Holy Cow!

Tomorrow will be one year since I finished the basement. It's also one year since I started the benchwork. All the benchwork is finished in the 17' X 40' basement. The first town modeled, South Greensburg, has all the track laid and signals working and several of the structures are in place. Youngwood, the second town modeled, is the main yard on the layout. Most of the track and switches are in place but now wired yet.

I'm happy with my progress so far.

Have a great weekend, Joey Ricard
