Mook, remember what the Wiz told Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz..."Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!" Sometimes ignorance IS bliss.

Train watcher, through and through! (Someday I'd like to become the "railfan's railfan.") Check my profile for info about the railroads near my location. Now that it's summer I'm trackside nearly every day.

The only time I wanted stars was when I was in the service. Didn't make it then either.

Did you receive my message about your three accounts? I can merge them into one and that'll put you in the 300's which gives you two blue stars. [;)]

I just need to know which of the three you want to keep.

Almost every day I'm forced to watch trains when I get stuck at the RR Crossing on my way to work. One thing I've noticed is that if I'm going to be late getting to work, the later I am the longer the train will be. [}:)]

Seriously tho', I wouldn't call myself a train watcher. It's not that I don't like to watch trains, it's a matter of time I guess. I'm familiar with the different railroads, some of the terminology, but when it comes down to the specifics like the type of engine, what all the numbers on the side of boxcars represent -- no way, that's way too deep for me. [:I]

Now we (as in the family) have made regular trips to the East Troy Railroad, been down to the Illinois Railway Museum (Day out with Thomas [;)]) and also the Kettle Moraine Scenic Railway. We also have a bunch of RR videos (not just Thomas videos) which my two boys watch frequently.

When I was younger I had my own HO layout (it was roughly 8'x8') which I spent a lot of time on. I remember being 5 years old, staying up until past 2am watching B&W war movies and "helping" my father with his double-tiered O Gauge layout. We attended quite a few swap meets and made trips to club layouts. We also made frequent trips to his buddies house and would either help out with his huge layout, listen to them talk trains or watch train movies. Every Christmas I looked forward to visiting my two uncles who always had their Lionel trains setup around the Christmas tree.

Oh yeah, there is currently an N Scale oval that has taken up residence (temporarily [;)]) on the kitchen table. [:I]

So railfan, perhaps...just not a railfan-atic.
