Trainspotter

They'd all think I was a saddo trainspotter, which is not the image I want to convey.

`So are you like one of those anorak wearing trainspotter types?'

Above all, I remember the noise and smell of the steam locomotives, and it was those journeys that turned me into a trainspotter, which meant that soon a pencil, notebook and the Ian Allan locospotter's guide became essential items for the trip.

“Unless you want to end up in the depot!” Then he looks at me more closely, suspecting a trainspotter in his midst. “Maybe, you do want to end up in the depot.”
