Trains Without Having Gender. Diesels/steam?

Post Reply New Topic

Some of my locomotives are an he and others are a she. Usually diesels are males and steam locos are females. Do you catagorize them as he, she or it?

I haven’t reached the stage of classing them as yet .... for now, they’re best described as “my pretties”! Now, my spitfires, they are a “she”.

... MG!! ... and I fell for it!

Your bus could go up on jacks in a workshop.

Ooh. I've seen those cars before somewhere! Haha! Nice. They fit the scene well.

I started this thread because I kept seeing another thread and I kept miss-reading the word "Trains" so I thought I may as well make a train thread!
I have found that the strange thing is, that as this thread is not up and running I don't miss-read the other thread. Odd isn't it! Anyone have a theory as to why?

Yup ... one more train thread to add to the collection and keep all balanced in the world

Well. I once had a young lady ask me how the train driver is able to keep the train on the track as the rails are so thin. I said "That's why they pay them so well".

My Uncle’s boss said to him, “You are the worst train operator ever. How many trains have you derailed in the past year?”
He said, “I’m not sure. It’s so hard to keep track.”

You spend too long here if:

Signs of Autumn becomes Signs of Autism
Trains become Trans
Goldfish threads become trolling exercises

Haha.
Trolls live under bridges but fortunately goats don't need to fear trolls. It is the other way round.
Trans become trains?
Signs of autism... The fall? A shutdown in progress?

Ooh Juliette. That locomotive was a tad too early! We usually hear of late trains. That one was not late!

I originally read your thread title as "Trans Without Having Gender. Diesels/steam?"



There is a thread called "Signs Of Autumn" which I read as Signs Of Autism

When there are a lot of threads with the same word in it, it is easier to mistake a word that looks similar if you are not paying full attention

"Trains without gender diesel phoria?"

Thats how Mountain Goat read the title of that thread in LBGT when he saw it on the list of "current topics" on the flagship page of WP.


And then TuskenR misread Mountain Goat's thread title as being "Trans..." . The near opposite way. Lol!

It is interesting. It is like "Chinese whispers" but in written form. Do they do Chinese whispers in China?

And then there's always the old "When they were handing out brains, I thought they said trains"...

Everything revolves around trains!

And I missed mine. (thats the punchline).
