Men and their Toys

Talk about men and their toys!  I saw something like this a week ago on HGTV in one of their million-dollar homes, the owner had his own RR running all over the property with this size train.

You do realize that many of those small locomotives were hand built by the guys who are running them...??  You are looking at years of work just to construct one of those engines.  And much of it is done on lathe without computer controls....incredible amounts of work go into those.....
