I am newer to model trains but my son is into them so he got me back into them. The last four or five hobby shops I went in to look at trains and supplies have turned their noses up at me. If you walk in with a train like mine.... Just a small Bachmann 0-6-0 N Scale Steam Loco..They act like you shouldn't even be there or you can't do model trains and have fun unless you have something that makes sounds or has a DCC PCB. They try pushing you out the door or selling you over priced top of the line trains when you are just getting into it. Is it just me or has a lot of people seen this??
I may be new to trains but I do fly and build mini-turbine engines and fighter jets that are remote/control. So I have mechanical knowledge and I'm also an aircraft and turbine mechanic but they still talk to you like you know nothing.
