What dont you like about this hobby

[Gary S]

I don't like the costs, I'm 27 and can't afford this hobby. If you want to be able to run decent equipment, and proper turning radius, you need lots of room. It takes a long time to really get any results with a layout so you can enjoy running a train

And that is why most large/nice layouts are built by older folks... when you are young, you are typically not making as much money, you are buying a house, car, furniture, all the stuff for the children on and on and on. Then when you get older, all your stuff is paid for, the kids are gone, minimal expenses, so more money (and time) can be devoted to the hobby.
