There are many threads throughout this forum waxing the passing of that long ago time of adolescents playing with trains and lamenting today's situation where not that many young people show an interest in model trains. Most of us realize for our hobby's future the importance of getting today's youth involved.
So my question is, "Are you planning on giving a gift of trains of any type or scale to a youngster you know in the hope it might serve to spark their interest in our hobby?" Although it could be a close relative such as a child or grandchild it doesn't have to be. It can be a more distant relative or even a nonrelative such as an acquaintance's child or even a child not personally known to you other than through some charity.
Please share any train gifting that you've planned for this holiday season.
(Although I'm primarily speaking about trains for "children," your train gift could also be for that "bit of child" in any of us!
