You Might Be A Foamer If... #2

The second edition of you might be a foamer if. Hopefully these are just as good.

YOU might be a foamer if…

You’re scheduled to work at 6:15 but you clock in at 6:11.

Your favorite locomotive is the EMD SD70ACe.

You downloaded the Heritage Units app.

You check Heritage Units before you go to railfan.

All of your Facebook heads-ups include a photo and military time.

You wear a vest when you go trackside

You have two cameras with you

You also have a scanner with every single railroad frequency

You chase the same set of Illinois Central SD70s on the Bessemer & Lake Erie every chance you get.

You railfan no matter what the weather is outside

You railfan on holidays

You went to watch trains instead of your homecoming dance...or prom

Your girlfriend likes trains

You think a Nathan K5LA is gay (they are though)

You foam over a P5 or RS5T

Your first model engine was a heritage unit (guilty)

You had a trackside seat at the Berea Union Depot so you wouldn’t miss any train action

Your off-days from work include railfanning

You railfan on your birthday

You know what a foamer boner is

You refer to CSX 5286 as the “Spirit of Generic Foamer”

You follow Generic Foamer

Your YouTube channel includes some version of “Railfan Productions” (guilty, please subscribe to Red Raider Railfan Productions :^)

You foam over NS 1030 and 1111 (THEY’RE BASIC ACES FOR CHRISTS’ SAKE!)

If your Instagram profile shows how many heritage or special units of each railroad you have, you might be a foamer.
