Teenage Railfans

[Anonymous]

How many teenage railfans are on this forum? I know you guys are out there. I turned 17 yesterday. I think it's great to see that there are young people who like trains on this forum, considering that I personally don't know any where I live. Thankfully I'm not the only member of my generation who's a railfan. What are your guys' thoughts on being a young railfan?

I've also been a railfan since I was about 4 or 5, it runs in my family really, and I'm 14. I'm the one that posted the Should I Be An Engineer Post, because not only am I a railfan, I want to be an engineer too.

Hi there. I'm 17, and I've been a rail fan since 4-5, because the day care I went to had a CSX branch line run behind the playground. I remember all of the kids running to the fence when a train came, signaling the engineer to blow the horn. Trains still pass here with some frequency everyday, though they can be short. For those wondering, it's the old Western Maryland line that runs to Hanover, PA. I live in Hampstead, MD, which is NNW of Baltimore. It's about a 45 minute drive to Baltimore.

I've been one for 23 years!





Just kidding. But I have been one since I was about 6 yrs old. My first photos were of trains. Of course, this was many years ago......

Thanks Alaskaman, I was beginning to think only younger guys and gals could be railfans. Glad I was wrong!

I've been once since the dawn of time.. or since i was born, rather. I've always admired Trains, and ever since i was 3 i knew one day i would work with them.
