I was just wondering, are there any train fans around here that play the game Trainz 12 (Or any other game in the series), or know something about trains? I'm not a train expert, but I do know a trivial amount about trains.

Trains was my first special interest, coming right before my current one (space travel). I know a fair bit about trains and I still think that they are awesome, but I think that space ships are much cooler so I tend to get a lot of space games and I don't have any train games.

I have never played Trainz or anything like that, but I like trains a lot.
There is a lot of railroading where I live and I love watching trains go by.
I love hearing train horns off in the distance late at night.

Would you believe there's a movie coming out about a man with Asperger's who's so fascinated with trains he "steals" them? It's called "Train Man" and will star Julia Roberts.

(please, please, please don't let the PR agency for the movie get a call from Autism Speaks wanting to do co-marketing...)
