Hello,
My name is Ryann, and i enjoy Trainspoting. My friend callum and i are very interested in trainspoting and everything associated with it.
I would be most gratefull if you could post your thoughts on trains and trainspotting in general.
Thank you in advance
Ryann, Junior Member of the Trainspotting Guild.
Does writing down numbers of trains give you sexual thrills?
erm, do you and your mate have a life?
You saddo.
Thats as bad as watchin a bus come and leave the station..
andys does tha, after school xoxo
Ohhhh yes today when I was crossing over the railway bridge I saw train number 185258 which was a 3 coach First Transpennine Express service to Manchester Airport.
Personally, I think trainspotting is just sad. I see people down Cardiff writing down numbers of trains. "Oh, as you can see here we have the Arriva Trains Wales 1056 service running, approximately, 32 seconds late. It's one of the newer versions as see by the engine. Oh, and look here we have the Great Western 1918 model which was made in Portland Docks, Cardiff at 1056 on Saturday, 18th December."
What's fun about standing on a platform watching trains go past?
Girls dig it.Quote:

Wow, take it easy on him, he only wants to know if anybody trainspots. No need to rip him to shreds. Anyway, no I don't train spot but I live very close to some tracks and it gets lots of steam trains on it.

yes you do Adam ;l well thats what you seem to say, you always say like, class 1056 is usually on the route manchester - Birmingham and crap like that.
Just because his hobbie is watching trains doesn't mean it's his life. One of your hobbies is probably using the internet like it is for most people on this forum, it doesn't mean the forum is their life. And what's a hobbie have to do with a sex life? If your trying to look big because someone's posting about their hobbies which is stereotypically 'sad', your certainly not gaining any respect from me.Quote:

Sounds sad to me. You see trains go by, take a photo and get their number. Very interesting and exciting. :S
the only one i know is transpennine from grimsby is class 185 cos it sez it on the headrest thing ;)Quote:

Someone in my class trainspots but personally I think it's quite weird.
This goes for train & plane spotting. It is your opinion if you think its sad and all that, but its up to the person if thats what they like doing as a hobby. Not your job to judge the person because he train spots. I see nothing wrong with them doing it, I mean its only for some fun? and something to do every so often. (This is just my view)
Lime St. or Central?Quote:
