spotting you… at your best

THIS… is why we do it.

THIS IS THE MONEY SHOT. Folks, this is why we do what we do. I had a correspondent send this one to me, and props to her for being so incognito in capturing this. It was her first attempt, and this one was RIGHT next to her! Perfect. Special thanks to Baby for capturing this piece of glory.

Remember, you don’t have to be asleep. You may be spotted at anytime. This dude looked like Rico Suave. Remember him? Maybe it actually IS him. I pictured him taking his shirt off and dancing side to side saying, “Rico…… suave…..”

AWESOME.

This lady was RIGHT next to me. I mean, we were sharing a seat!!! I was so excited for taking this without being caught. I mean, I am REALLY starting to get good at this! Afterward, I took a picture of myself with a face of victory. Unfortnately for you, I can’t post that, because it would reveal my identity. I was pumping my fist in the air after this one.

This mullet was too good to pass up. I mean, it’s kicking SO much ass here.

Travel Etiquette

In the mornings, people do one of two things: sleep or read. It’s either people reading the paper or a book, or people slouched over in their seat, head against the window, rocked to sleep by the thunder of our train on the tracks. These of course, are our victims.

This guy is one of my favorites. Note the suit jacket hanging properly on the hook:

People do not have to be sleeping for me to take their picture. Remember Captain Kangaroo? He was on my train. I thought he was dead. Nope.

Until next time.

The serious sleeper

This guy is serious.

This guy was RIGHT next to me. I had to be super sneaky to capture this. He fell asleep SO hard that he didn’t get off when the train stopped at the last stop. People in my car were all lining up to get off the train and he was still slumped over. We all looked at each other, wondering if we should do something. Hell, he might STILL be there.

Since I took this picture I see this guy every now and then. He wears a really crazy hat in the wintertime, and like BARELY pulls it over his head, so like the sock cap is on, but then there is like six inches of hat/air/space on the top. I’ll try to capture that.

Welcome… to trainspotters….

Welcome to Trainspotters…where we catch you at your very best.

This site was started for one reason: to catch people riding public transportation who are asleep, secretly take their picture, and post it on the web for all to enjoy. We’re not sure why, but this is funny. EVERY TIME. Every time we get a pic, we laugh. We wanted to share the joy.

Some folks don’t have to be asleep, they just have to look good enough to make it on the site. You’ll find they are funny too.

So enjoy, and feel free to post your comments to us. And look out – you just might be spotted.

spotted….

This guy was very serious about sleeping on the train, he even brought a pillow. Note that his ticket is displayed so that he is not disturbed when the conductor comes by. He means business.
