Sigh, how railroads have lost their importance

Gabe, <br />Maybe it's your perception of things, just because you're a railfan. <br /> <br />I think all of us wish we'd bought Microsoft way back when. <br /> <br />Almost everyone has a computer, and there are relatively few of us, in the large scope of things, who railfan. I doubt anyone goes out to watch a computer run by, or takes pictures of one, or has meetings with their buddies to talk about them. <br /> <br />Trains still haul LOTS of stuff to LOTS of places. They're big and loud a smell good. AND a lot of people still make a pretty good living working for the railroad. <br /> <br />Keep your passion for trains and enjoy it for yourself. Don't care about what the rest of them think. <br /> <br />But I do have an off-topic comaparison... I love drag racing and sprint car racing, but all I get on TV is NASCAR. I'll bet if you checked, NASCAR turns a pretty hefty profit too. But it doesn't mean I love sprint cars or dragsters any less, and it doesn't matter to me what anyone else thinks about them , or trains either. <br /> <br />Just my .02 <br /> <br />m
