I am curious...when you travel by rail, do you "display your colors"? What I mean by that, is do you wear apparel or carry scanner's, etc., that will readily show your affection for all things railway, so as to meet and socialize with like-minded individual's? This could be something very subtle like a small lapel pin, or full flaming foamer regalia.
In my younger days, I usually would wear a cap or t-shirt indicating my particular employer, or favored RR. This often led me into stimulating conversations with others like-minded, or just curious about it. Now I usually don't do anything to bring any attention to myself on board, but if I overhear other's "talking rail", I would sometimes join the conversation....
