James,

As a fellow young railfan, younger than you at 21, I agree with your sentiments completely. Having been to this years NRHS convention, I can also say that Drew's posts are entirely on target for the vibe that I perceived in the NRHS. As for the wars across this board, I think it is time to stop harassing folks for freeloading or chasing a train given that without these chasers, no memory of the excursion will exist for future generations. How do I know about steam and diesels before I was born? Through the photos of others who freeloaded excursions!!! Or dare I say it trespassed!

But in the meantime, the new generation of railfans grows and as part of that generation, I look forward to the future of railfanning.

Ben
