Sounds to me like you just answered your own question. Also as an adult
collector it's a little less embarrassing to show other adults (who think of
legos as kids toys) a nice model train layout on a table then just a setup of
lego buildings and cars. The aspect of the "train" in the layout seems to give
the profile of a more "respectable hobby" in some peoples eyes. :)

| Why does so many people love trains? Is it because you can build scale-models of real trains? Because they move? Because you like model railroads? Because it´s lego? Because it gives your town a nice addition? --Tobias (25 years ago, 19-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)
