Railroadforums.com is a free online Railroad Discussion Forum and Railroad Photo Gallery for railroaders, railfans, model railroaders and anyone else who is interested in railroads. We cover a wide variety of topics, including freight trains, passenger and commuter railroads, rail news and information, tourist railroads, railway museums and railroad history.
With Chinese New Year coming up at the end of the month (1/31), keep an eye out for any engines numbered solely with the Chinese lucky number 8: #8, #88, #888 and #8888. Quite appropriately, the new Chinese lunar year is the year of the (iron) horse.
If you photograph any lucky numbered engines in the year ahead; post your photos here, for you will be blessed with great railfan fortune in 2014/15. As they say in the old country: Gong Xi Fa Cai.
