A more likely option which was not given is (e) push HER under a train.
If that were to happen, I would take a time out from the hobby. If I got back into it, I just may have to try On30. A word of caution to all of you hobbyists: Don’t let your love of any hobby, ruin your marriage, it’s not worth the loss. A good marriage means putting you spouse’s needs and attention first. I Know this from my own experience, it was a tough lesson to learn.
I will say, if my ex took my trains I would ask her to return them to me since she has no interest in keeping them herself.
My ex actually took my some of my trains out of spite. I just let it go and started later. However I do like the response.
I FIT RIGHT IN HERE. I grabbed all my Cars, LOCO’s and some Track etc. The layout was 17 feet by 6 feet, i HAD IT SOLD ,I begged Her not to TRASH it , but behind my Back It was destroyed . The main control board all TRASHED.Now I sit here, no room for a Layout , its time to work on my locomotives, Divorce Does Terrible Things!!!
