Judge it!
There are two types of basic train guys! there is the one that has to have it just to have it, these are what i call collector's. it don't matter to them that it will or will not ever "ROLL DOWN THE TRACKS" it's just having the thing that is FUN.
On the other hand, a Modeler is the guy that will buy stuff and place on his "LAYOUT" table, these are the guys that want to have the "HANDS ON FUN" I am one of those. if i wanted to build something that didn't have action in the end, i would have just made plastic models and detailed them to the hilt.
nether group is in the right! we need all of them to enjoy our hobbie.

Daily Horoscope for December 26
Gemini
Mercury will backtrack through your finances over the next few weeks, which isn't a very seasonal thought if you're already well aware that you've overspent this month. Be prepared to do some juggling or to seek expert advice if you're worried about how you're going to cope. You may be kept busy handling inheritance, tax or insurance matters, preparing investment analysis, and allocating funds for the repayment or collection of debts.
