Thank God.

Something is just pure-T freaky about kids not liking to play with toy trains.

Slot-cars, too, I've read that they're having a bit of a resurgence.

I remember the slot-car stores / tracks up in Bellaire, TX when I was but a wee lad. Tons of analog fun!

It may be making a comeback.I have 17,000 nephews. And none of them have gotten into trains, despite my parents' (their grandparents') best efforts to turn 'em on to the hobby, except one. He's 4, but I think it's telling that he may be the smartest of the bunch.

Then our house would be the least freaky place on earth. My 5 year old loves trains and I am sorry to admit we are spoiling him. Just got another HO gauge train last night. Going to Lowes to get board to put it on. I have to admit that I like them too. Never had one as a kid. My parents thought it was too macho for a girl. More confessions, when he is at school I play with them. (Shhhh don't tell anyone) ;-)
