I had three of them at one time. Gradually sold them off over the years. I never made the switch to all digital control as it would have cost thousands. Now, just a C&S freight train and an Aristo Christmas Freight Train with a FA-1. I also have two streetcars, a PCC from Aristo and a one from Bachman that is Christmas. I used to have the Union Pacific Streamline Set from Aristo and the Heavyweight Passenger Set with a Pacific in the Pennsylvania colors.

Nice trains. :thumbup:
I am working on some 2 1/2" scale narrow gauge trains. I hope to build a steam locomotive in a couple of years.
If you like "ride on trains" 1/8 scale check out http://www.discoverlivesteam.com. They have listing of railroads in your area. Florida has a lot of good railroads.

mines biking, shooting (shotguns) and fishing (fresh water as a kid, sea fishing now), and in that order now, the order has probably changed over the years, but the hobbies remain the same, here's a couple of piccies of my current bikes, too many guns to photograph, (favourite Super Lanber 12 gauge) also too many rods, and photography of course

Smoking. Been smoking for 15years. Had a stroke in 2010 and my doctor suggested that I have the time to smoke more often so I turned my hobby into a part time job. Smoke brisket, pork, veggies and yes even fish. 8-)

Woodworking. I've crafted something for each one of the grandchildren. 7 yr. old requested a Lego Table. I decided to incorporate a chess/checkerboard.

Banjo now that sounds interesting, you good? What type of shooting? The only type I have done when I was about 8 - 10 was 12 bore, clay pigeon. In the RAF eveything from .22 up to 76mm, yes 76mm.

Good? Well, there's a saying about banjo players that applies to me. A banjo player spends half his time tuning his instrument, and the other half playing out of tune!
As for shooting, I do some cowboy action shooting, a little three-gun, but my real favorite is service rifle competition where I get to shoot my WWII M1 Garand a lot!

In my younger days I lived in Hawaii and was an avid scuba diver. In my thirties it was target shooting. Since my semi-retirement cooking takes up the time between photo shoots.

Trains,full size,better if steam,as well as the old small inspection railcars known as"speeders".

sourdough58 Loc: Maine

I'am with you on that, The M1 Garand is a great rifle I like the way it looks, feels, sounds and shoots years back I shot on the state HI-power rifle team with my Win. match 308 and the State of Maine issued me a National Match M1- Garand to shoot in the Military leg Match, I was on the team for two years and when I left the team the State wanted their M1 back, I would like to buy one but has not been in the budget, I usta think CMP might find a warehouse full of them and start selling them for $100.00 ea.
