Hobbies vs. Real Life (was 'Dollar Tank Car' = A1G Vinegar Tank Car)

I love the fact that my real life 'skills' of snooping, analysis and cross referencing help my hobby immensely.
While working @ Helpdesk way back 20+ I was able to indulge in several years of research into 'which road' I'd like to model and research in detail. By 2002 I was riding the CZ through to Denver...

Your list-owner responds...

I've gone the other way... my snooping, analysis and cross-referencing, learned in my high school "Research Techniques" class back in the Previous Century, is of course useful for Model Railroading Topics but it has really informed my work skills as well.? I still find that the hobby work reinforces my day job, and vice versa.

Cheers,
