Through the years, I have been surprised that many model railroaders are not railfans. Now, if you live in a train-free zone, I can understand that. But it seems rather odd, seeing as it is one very obvious way to understand what it is you are modelling, even if your era is not modern. Personally, I was a railfan first, then, always being into model cars, I naturally …

Railfan & Railroad is an American monthly magazine that has been in publication since the 1970s. It was the first magazine title created in-house by Carstens Publications. As a magazine dedicated to trains and rail transportation, it stands out from its main competitor Trains as a publication focused on the enthusiast and related activities.
In the United Kingdom, railfans are usually called trainspotters or anoraks. The term gricer has been used in the UK since at least 1969, and is "said to have been current in 1938 amongst members of the Manchester Locomotive Society", according to the Oxford English Dictionary.
Although some railroaders are railfans themselves, many view it as just a job with no emotional attachment to the industry in any way, shape or form. As such, these folks are distrustful, and sometimes even hostile, to train enthusiasts who watch or photograph trains near the tracks.
