Railroaders' HO scale is just "cute" and that they've got such a huge selection of cool kits is quite amazing. Combining our hobby with theirs is somehow gratifying albeit that both are in stark generational decline in popularity with the average modeler being a male in their late fifties to mid sixties and railroaders being at least a decade or so older on average. The numbers aren't kind; I'm also wondering how I strayed so far off topic...
