Greetings fellow railfans!
I would like to share with you my railfanning fashion choices for this Autumn season.
Are you ready? Then
All Aboard!
Here I am in a sporting but formal dress with tan accents with matching heels. This outfit says, "Look out LAUS, here I am!" I can mingle with business class from 11 and 14, show off my knowledge of Sonoma Grenache or Zinfandel, spout railroad history with ease. Then it's off to the tracks for some train pics. Passenger foaming at it's best!
In urban settings, a SWAT uniform accessorized with shot gun casings, flack jacket, ammo pouches and holster tells tells the neighborhood I mean business! I reply to any question with a random, two-word, cryptic phrase, like "fugitive illegal," with a stern expression. People are puzzled, but they just walk away and leave me alone. I am one bad ass urban foamer!
Oil Cans on the Coast Line! Thanks for that heads-up
UP SLO Conductor. With trunks and a head bandana, I can blend in with the beach crowd while waiting for the Oil Cans - if they ever show up (?). I can enjoy a hot dog. I can check out other dudes. No such thing as a bad day on the Coast!
Home at last! What a day of chasing trains. It is now time to relax.
One refreshing Mountain Dew later, and I am on my computer posting my pics on Trainorders for all my friends and fans!
