Hello and thank you for joining Railfanning Adventures!
Richard Bernardon is our group founder. He started this group so that he wasn’t driving everyone crazy on his personal page with “railroad stuff”. It has since grown to an amazing project. His purpose is to make someone smile every day and most times he can do that through this group. He is so grateful to have found so many others who enjoy the various aspects for trains and railroading and he hopes to catch you track side!
This group is for everything railroading. We love pictures and videos of trains, stations, and historical railroad structures. We also love to see your model railroad work, too. Have a current event? We like to know about that and love conversations. Do you have historical information you find interesting? I bet others will also. Please like, comment, and share all your videos and pictures and enjoy the group.
We welcome all railroads and all ages. Please keep this in mind when posting and commenting during videos. We try to keep it as clean as possible, but we are all human. Please be kind and polite when commenting. Some members are just learning while others can tell you how to build a train. We are lucky to have such variety here to share in the same passion. We want everyone to be comfortable in the group.
We also welcome people of all abilities. Sometimes we rail fan for those who can’t because they are unable to leave their house or are going through health issues. Sometimes it is because they are children who love trains (and their parents share our group with them). We also have members who are neurodiverse. Please keep all of this in mind as you virtually meet our members.
