There are several of us females who are railfans: Mookie, Nora, Kathi Kube,
nance69 and me, cherokee woman. YES, WE DO EXIST!! These names are
just the names I know of on the forums: and I forgot Big Girl (so sorry about
that). [angel]

Good goobly! How would TRAINS do that?! A person either likes trains or doesn't. It's not a "PC" issue. As for minorities, I've met plenty of them that are railfans. Depends on what part of the U.S or Canada you're living in. There are also railfans of just about every background around the globe where trains run.

The wife of a friend of mine is a Railfan. She grew up near a mainline.
