Ferroequinology

The study of trains, or more precisely, locomotives, is referred to by the rather glorious name of Ferroequinology.Some Trainspotters like to call themselves Ferroequinologists - from the study of the iron horse. And I believe in Australia the term Gunzel is sometimes used. While in France trainspotting is known as Ferrovipathe which literally means “railway disorder”.
