Posing A Question About THe Hobby

[sgtcarl1]

Okay. Time for me to "chime in." So, if you don't like to read articles about a "contractor" built layout, fine. Just don't read them. Suppose I wanted a model railroad to enjoy. And suppose I wasn't physically able to build it, myself. Hypothetically speaking, some things aren't do-able to someone in a wheelchair. So suppose I hired someone to build the layout for me. But I ran the trains when it was completed. By some of the members of this illustrious forum I'm not actually a model railroader. I'm just a "wanna be." And because my hands aren't steady enough to build a kit, and have it look decent, does that mean I can't have any buildings on my layout, because I didn't build them myself? How many of you self righteous modelers manufacture your own track???
Really! I'm just a little miffed, no, make that peeved, about some attitudes that are displayed here on. I may just go elsewhere.
