The point is this -- an inference was made that a railfan must *know* a real railway
before being eligible to be called a railfan.
But a railfan can be a railfan if he has never--ever seen a real railway but enjoys other
aspects and considers same his hobby. Of course, he is not excluded from seeing a
railway!
