Here is how I cope and relax once at home

Post Reply New Topic

I work in a noisy, smelly factory. The benefits are an excellent wage and benefits. I work four 10 hour days with 3 days off. I go in at 6 am and work till 4:30 pm. Once I get home, I manage to shower, eat and that is about it, I am done both physically and mentally for the day. But, those wages allow me to indulge my obsession with model trains in a fairly large scale. G scale, one of the largest non rideable scales of trains. This one that I just rewarded myself with is a real steam locomotive. She burns butane gas to create steam to push/pull the cylinders just like a full size steam locomotive does. Enjoy! Dodger

I am impressed.

That's a really cool train

Wow that is really awesome! I love the sound of the water in the background- I could listen to that all day!

Thanks. I also have trains that are battery powered(no cleaning the track to run every time!). They just quietly go around the loop while the sounds of nature and that water fall fountain fill the air. I can get lost in my little world there for hours. Its very relaxing and one of my best ways to cope and recharge myself! Dodger.

I always fancied one if those little working steam engines. Great stuff, Dodger!

Beautiful train!
