Foamer Page

Foamer you say? What is that? According to Wikipedia, "Excessively enthusiastic railfans are sometimes referred to pejoratively as foamers, especially by American rail workers, in reference to the joking notion that they foam at the mouth in their excitement over train operations. Also called a railfan or rail buff (American English), railway enthusiast or railway buff (Australian/British English), or trainspotter (British English). It is a person interested in a recreational capacity in rail transport."(Source site © Wikipedia)
