trains? Babe magnet!!

[r.cprmier]

Hey!!  All you single guys.  I discovered that; besides my dog, I have another babe magnet.  It is called my trains.  Women love it!!!  They think it is great that (you) have so much talent- and brains too; not like other guys...the couch potatoes, etc.  I think it is a riot.  I showed one date how to run the throttle, and she had a ball for about two hours!  Never saw a real steamer, but loved the Bachmann Spectrum stuff-thought it is really cool.

What a wonderful world!!!

Oh, do I have comments about women and steam locomotives!  But this is youth friendly...

Gene...Are you talking about "steamy" stories..?? 

[Guilford Guy]

Well uh models, and women, both usually have cabooses...
But, well, I'm hoping the Th*m*s F*ns don't figure that one out...

Rich,

I wish my wife thought my train addiction was "great." It sounds like the date you had was a keeper. That's a good screening tool. My wife just thinks I'm a 30 yr old man who plays with toys. So far the only people that think my trains are cool are my three year old and one year old sons and my cub scouts. (I'm a Weblos leader)

Good luck buddy,

New Guy

That would be one.

I agree with Rich!  I took my girlfriend into a lhs and it didn't take her 30 minutes before she had her own set!  lol  She is a keeper!   Stephen

Yep...
...A good big black dog, a train layout, a love for the iron horse, blue eyes on the victrola, and you can't miss!

PS:  If all else fails, remind her tha both Frank AND Rod...well, y'know...

This is a riot!

 As Mae West would have said, "That's some throttle you have there, big boy."

Eons again it was, "Want to come up and see my etchings?"(I did say it was eons ago!) Now it's "Want to see my trains?"

Now that the word is out that Rod Stewart is into trains and structures for same some of the skepticism regarding our "toys" may evaporate.

Wouldn't that be "Want to come up and see my engines?"

Wanna go down to the basement? I have some big boys you can play with down there...

[Guilford Guy]

If you flip that switch you will turn on a big boy...

Just remember moderation guys.  don't let them know just HOW much you enjoy trains, lol.
