The perfect gift for the megalomaniac on a budget.

Paul, you, SERIOUSLY don't want to dip into this mania! Model Railroading has been out of control for decades and, like any malignant organism, it feeds just to grow and feed.

My dad gave "me" more Lionel stuff than would fit on 2 ping-pong tables with just about every accouterments available back then. Not that I ever got to play with it but it was for me!

N-Scale is my passion. And don't dare call them "toy" trains. A good brass model of a steam engine that sets you back $500.00 is not something you let little Mikey play with.

Although megalomania is a good description for someone who creates their own worlds with bums, funerals and fat people.
