   I thought those model railroad layouts just ran with a transformer, etc.,
 around a layout. I didn't think they were radio controlled.
  
   Back in the fall of 2009, when my late Mom and I went out to San Diego,
 California, on Amtrak...for the Clive Cussler Collectors Society (CCCS)
 Convention that year, one of my side trips (while my Mom was at the CCCS),
 was visiting Balboa Park, and the huge model railroad layout they had there.
 It was impressive to say the least...which is the case for most of these
 large model railroad layouts that I've seen. You can tell that meticulous
 detail and work goes into it. Some places sell items of every sort for the
 layout, and there are other places to buy locomotives and rolling stock.
 
   This proves that ANY hobby, can get very expensive in a hurry!!
