This week the DOW dropped almost 4,000 points due mainly due to the Corona Virus spreading and its affect on the US and World economies. Will you curtail your budgets for model railroading spending or cut back spending to include only the most necessary items for your model railroad.
I know I have a Rapido SW1500 on order which isn't due until late this year or early next year. But, that Scale Trains locomotive I been thinking about may have to wait awhile before I order the one I want to add to my roster. I need couplers, metal wheels and some select modeling paint colors which I'll purchase tomorrow at Walthers. I have a order of Scale coat spray Grimy Black paint ordered and some other weathering paint colors that were on line orders and should arrive in the next few days.
I know I'll be a bit more cautious on our spending habits and think twice or even three times before making any medium to large purchases.
My personal opinion is that the Corona Virus is nothing more than a unknown virus similar to the flu bug, but perhaps more deadly. The media again maybe over reacting, but the concerns are real, but extreme measures may not be necessary.
Hey, on the bright side I could live for two weeks staying in my house working on the railroad.
What are your thoughts and opinions....?
