do you ever dream about trains?

I have a few times. Last night I dreamt I was in the NYC subway (I've only been in there a few times in my life, though I've seen a lot of pictures and I'm quite interested in it), but it looked more run-down than usual and a bit more, shall I say, European. And I remember seeing a map of all the rail lines in the world, but of course it looked more like a typical subway map, with thick colored lines and bold letters. I remember seeing some tracks, for some reason, in far eastern Siberia.

It's pretty weird, now that I think about it, that the very next day I read the story posted here about a rail line through a wormhole from Montreal to Samoa. [:0]

I often dream about trains-real and model. I already started a topic asking the same question here a while ago.

I had a train dream the other night. I was at the controls of a westbound Port Alberni Turn climbing the 2.2% grade over the "hump" with 80 cars.

I usualy dream about railfaning and seeing just the marker of a train as it leaves town while I am stuck in traffic.
The trouble is that most of these dreams come true.[:D]

There is no such thing as a bad day of railfanning. So many trains, so little time.

I had a dream about driving a AMTRAK TRAIN DURING A SNOWSTROM ON MARIAS PASS
