Years ago when I was teaching a Year Six english group, we were reseraching phobias and their origins, such as arachnophobia. Each phobia has its opposite mania!

A Siderodromophobiac is a person with a fear of trains and railways ....

So Siderodromomaniacs have an obsessive interest of the same ....

I prefer to call myself a Siderodromophiliac or lover of trains and railways!
