model railroad speaking of course 
. I exchanged PM's with Pete awhile back and I mentioned I really don't care all that much about model building in and of itself. If that was all I wanted I would have stuck with military and hot rod car dioramas. What keeps me going back into the train room is taking the models I do build and putting them together to create a (hopefully 
) realistic scene that I can THEN run a train thru. Yes I do operate the train in a prototype manner from time to time and designed the layout for that purpose but that alone won't keep me in the hobby. I don't collect or get into track planning or non-operating dioramas. It's scene building/modeling that lights my fire, what lights yours. If your choice isn't in the poll please post what it is. Thank you!
