80 will be the new retirement age

[PAH]

Modelled it last month. It's not great.

One of my older cousins once gave me a model railway he built using an old door as the base. Had a tunnel and everything.

Was pretty impressed at the time (being pre-teen) though it taught me at an early age that land speculation can be fraught with problems. My parents made me throw it away when we moved house and there wasn't room for it.

I do wonder if it was one family 'heirloom' worth keeping seeing as there's a model railway shop that's still open in my old hometown, and has been there at least 30 years. So there must still be quite a demand for this stuff to fill your man shed with.

For something like that you shouldn't be looking at the short term. Acquire a bit here, a bit there over the years and it will add up.
