Railfan
After coming across this great definition of "Railfan" at http://www.reference.com/browse/trainspotter , I've discovered that I am more of a railway photographing enthusiast than a pure trainspotter. So I guess it's true... I guess I am a Railfan.
I'm a small town girl who just finished university with a concentration in Painting and Photography. I love movies and someday hope to be part of one.
Also, I'm an ex-siderodromophobic.
What is it about trains that fascinate me so? A question I have long asked myself and yet don’t quite know how to answer. I must take this road on the discovery of the railroad and the existence of the locomotives among us; my artistic research to find once and for all what it is about these monstrous machines that peak my curiousity today, and why I was so afraid of them as a little girl.
