omg what KIND of RAILFAN ARE you ? ? ?
Those who spend most of their time on one station only are known as "stoats" or "veg" Contrasted with stoats are "dorbs," who travel frequently from station to station, often on a particular favourite variety of train, in order to spot lines which may not run through their home vicinity "Cranks" are particularly attracted to one type of train and make sure they see all of its workings "Neds" concentrate on special rail activity and tend to ignore the regular happenings on the lines, and look for "gen" (information about railway workings) prior to spotting. if only there were a personality quiz to tell me which one i am |

us Air Force brats used to get a kick out of the planefans in Germany who'd line the fences at the runways so they could watch the planes take off and land
at the airbase.

My grandpa was an Engineer on Union Pacific his whole adult life....I grew up riding the trains in the yard when I was a kid.
(kidding not) :c D We all did. My brother still has a massive train set in his workshop....now I have slot cars. Trains are a Weems family LOVE. |

Yeah, I love trains. I wish Amtrak would get their shit together someday so we could have REAL train service in this country.

I rode Amtrak from Denver to Utah last fall to meet a friend and go camping. It's an extraordinarily relaxing way to travel--I had four seats that were
much larger than first class airplane seats all to myself. And the price was very reasonable.
On the other hand, what with delays and the generally slow pace, it took me just about twice as long as driving would have. |

I still miss my grandpa. :c ( GRRRRRRR......WHY WON'T MY STUPID CAT LET ME POST WITHOUT GETTING HER ASS IN THE WAY? grrrrrrrrrr I just threw her against the wall....I'm tired of her insisting on her "posting experience". grrr

Does the old 19th century trains would replace a high-speed rails?

That sounds cool to ME anyway!
:c D P.S. How do they allow your trains in prison ? :c ? It seems like it's breaking a rule of some kind. |

Yeah, that's how we pass the shanks out to everyone. We ran the line through all of the cells and we loaded the shanks into gondolas.
And I know I can't speak for anyone but myself, but the only older HO scale equipment I want is the brass stuff. Otherwise, the advances in the new models is unbelievable!! The sound decoders and DCC can't be beat. I love being able to run 3 powered engines together and have them all run under one address. Too cool! |

Most people think the old HO prison trains are best....but I like the newer ones.....with the brass. :c ) |

My father was an engineer. Freight. My ncle was a trwin fireman. My brothers most all work around the trains. They think these people are fucking freaks. I
think they throw rotted fruit and piss on them.

Thank God for the model trains, you know? If they didn't have the model trains they wouldn't have gotten the idea for the big trains.
