What do you think of railroad enthusiasts?

Results | Messages
My personal experience has been that people who are interested in trains and railroads are considered weirdos. In fact, in England the word 'trainspotter' came to mean 'someone who has too much time on their hands and pursues weird useless hobbies' I just wonder if that's how people feel about us - railroad lovers.

No way. How did I fall in love with such a weirdo on the first place?
