Ferroequinology

It's a community, where people have discussions about the railway system in a particular place. Most of them, in the communities I'm associated with, are obsessed with photographing the trains. Say if a train starts its journey with a locomotive of different livery and someone spots it at one city of its origination, he simply updates it in a WhatsApp group and a Facebook group, which slowly spreads among the people living in the cities where the train goes, and these people will go to some picturesque locations to click the train or make a video of the train. There are few annual meetings of communities, where rail enthusiasts from various parts of country meet in a place, share their experiences. Sometimes they fly down from other countries as well. We people form groups and travel to different places, mostly confined to railway tracks no matter how far we go.
