Why Railfanning is better than Deer Hunting

Train lovers don't get mad at you for shooting "Thomas The Tank Engine."
You can't use a scanner to tell when deer are getting close.
No arguments when two people shoot the same train at the same time.
No boring "Deer Hunting" stories.
Nobody cares if you use a railroad crossing sign to "sight in" your camera.
Three words: "Hunting License Fee."
SD90MAC's don't need to be field dressed.
Working models of deer? Yeah, right.
There's no limit on how many trains you're allowed to shoot or bring home.
Unless they're really dumb, your buddies won't mistake you for a diesel locomotive.
A warm train room beats a tree stand any day.
Trains can be shot all year long.
No taxidermist fee needs to be paid when "mounting" your best trophy shot.
Wife wouldn't object too much to having your "trophy shot" hang over dining room table or displayed in the front room.
Kids don't run away sobbing "BAMBI" when you bring a "trophy" home.
Filet of GP7 just doesn't sound too appetizing.
