Wayne makes a good point about what is true in life, and not just model railroading.

I have a coworker who has no car, and no television (shocking). He earns plenty, and has no big expenses. Yet, he frequently mentions about how he is looking to buy a television and a car. I have worked with him for a year and a half, and he still talks about "when he finds one he likes". I finally concluded that he never will buy a car or a television; he is just indecisive. Other coworkers tell me he has been talking about getting a car and a television for ten years or more, but never has. That is dithering - constantly talking about what one wants to do without ever making progress towards that goal. Perhaps under psychoanalysis someone may conclude that he really doesn't want a car or a television and is just saying that to explain his eccentricity, and that he is happy living without - and that would not be dithering.
