This is a hobby that can be as complex or as simple as the person wants

You can just mark off
engine numbers
or engines and multiple units
or engines, multiple units and coaches
or engines, multiple units, coaches and wagons
or engines, multiple units, coaches and wagons and departmental stock
or engines, multiple units, coaches and wagons, departmental stock and road rail vehicles

then there is photography as well as the esoteric spotting using headcodes and folk who enjoy recording timings of trains


I hope you enjoy your musings and theorising there is far more to trainspotting than men in anoraks
