I don't know about all Americans but I suppose some American railfans like big cars because the zoning laws in their neighborhoods won't allow them to keep a locomotive on the property. I heard that when Otto Kuhler was with the German army in Belgium in World War I he would fire up a locomotive to go take his girlfriend on a date.
