Age of the Rail Fandom |
|
|
Posted by Jersey Mike on Mon Jun 25 22:42:30 2012 Hey, I was wondering if anyone had any information on the history of the Railroad Fandom. I know it goes back pretty far (NRHS dates to 1935 and the first model trains were sold in the 1840's) and is at least about as old as Radio, but I was hoping to compare it with the likes of Sherlock Holmes, which is widely recognized as the oldest modern media type fandom. Finally does anyone have an idea to the size of the railfan community in the UN and Canada? |
