This question refers to either locomotives/rolling stock/etc or train-related items (calendars, clocks, etc).
No, I buy enough train stuff thru the year, Xmas is time to do things for other members of the family, and none of them do the train thing![8D]
No, for me also I’m pretty much the only one in my family with this affliction.
Take care,
Jack
Yes I will be giving away train related presents this year . My brother-in-law’s son Jacob has a Lionel 6x12 railroad in his basement that I built for him . He’s gonna have a REAL great Christmass cuz his dad got him 4 new loco’s . Jacob is 6 years old and is real good with his trains . I think he is hooked for live on railroading . When the family comes over here he runs my garden trains with me.
I said yes but for me, I 'm the only one who’ed get it right. That and I’m always self (concious(spell) of asking anybody for anything that invloves more than $ 30.00 or so.
No let the bastards get their own

I
always add to my grandchildrens layout at this special time of the year.
I’m making a crossbuck sign for a friend of mine. Six feet high. It’s in the midst of three coats of paint right now, and still needs to have the lettering stencilled on. He doesn’t go online, so I’m not giving the game away!

I had to vote ,NO, after all these years the family is pretty tired of “trains” living around me. But maybe someday when the boys get older they’ll get back into it.
Hey everyone,
This year I said to the wife “How about a card with cash!” That way we can get each other what we really want…by picking it ourselves. Hee hee. This year we get to give each other a new furnace! How exciting eh??? Oh well, the gas co. says our old one has to go! Better safe and merry than cold and crabby. Later eh…Brian.
Well I knew this would happen, while Xmas shopping this weekend I picked up a battery operated Thomas the Tank Engine set for one of my nieces kids, so disregard the above and change my vote to Yes…[:p]
My mother, grandfather and other relatives are fond of giving me money for Christmas to purchase my own gift, thus I will be purchasing some railroad related items for myself.
Hello all,
I can’t afford to buy train related gifts for myself let alone others.However,I do try and build something for my Dad.Usually something he likes and can’t buy.here is this years effort,based on one he used to own.

Anthony
I said yes but it’s no!
I bought my buddy a work bench so he could work on his trains!
