What's the top train item on your Christmas list?

I’m hoping for the Precision Craft Models T-1 loco myself. Either that or one of BLI’s B&O E6’s.

Only 24 more days to go!!!

I’ll take a little offshoot here. Every year i run into problems with family who are going to buy you something, but they insist on buying you a shirt, gift certificate to restaraunt etc , even though they ask what you want. I’ve always had hobbies that the general public didn’t understand, Ham Radio, Astronomy, Drums, now Trains. If your going to spend X on me then either give me a gift certificate, or the cash so I can buy something I really want. Or the Subscription to MRR, or join the local RR historical society etc. Only my wife would now enough to actually go to a Hobby shop and have a clue what I would want. I hate the commercialization of Christmas. Except for your immediate family it’s like this. I’ll buy something for someone I only marginaly can stand so they can buy something just as useless for me or my family [:(!] We both may as well keep the $20 in our own pockets [8D] Dave

My wife and I moved in with my Mother-in-law for health reasons. What I really want is a nice clean space in the overpacked basement to set up my layout again. That would be the best MRR present I could get [:D]

Any FSM kit would be very nice, Santa are you reading this?

24

plywood … how can they go wrong with that?

25

An Intermountain Milw FP7(with DCC/Sound, of course). But that may be on hold as my son got laid off yesterday, and will be moving home(and I suspect I will be helping pay off his student loans). At least I will have the DCC ‘whiz’ at home again…

A new DCC system! And a Bachmann 2-8-0 or 2-10-0! =)

27

Gift certificates from online hobby stores. This somewhat avoids the problems that davsachz is talking about. I even sent an email with links to several sites to my wife’s email account. She can use the info, or forward on to others that may be buying me something. If I get enough combined, then a Digitrax Zephyr will hopefully be making its new home in my basement.

Lat year it was trees. This year it is DCC Decoders. I think I would like a Digitrax setup but not totally ready yet.

I wrote down a list of about 7 or 8 engines that I wanted and gave it to my grandpa, and told him that I would like one from that list or maybe another new engine.

34

Trainfreak, what is your username on the National teenaged rail enthuaist society, I just joined today

35

Never mind, just found it out

36

I want an eBay gift certificate. You can buy anything on ebay.

37

I’m asking for a BLI PRR K4. Santa has already said yes. I’d be just as happy with a stocking full of Tsunamis and their best speakers.

38

Bachmann 2-8-0 SP
Cab Forward
F7 / F3

All with Decoder and Sound…

Oh, it’s too bad that you’re selling them.

I’m still hoping to latch onto a BLI sound/DCC equipped Great Northern NW2 switcher for my Cascade Yard module.
