Practicing railroaders apparently never use the term and when railfans use it they classify the user as a "daisey picker", a person not to be taken seriously. Most railroaders don't even know what the word means. My own pet peeve is to read a caption referring to a consist of several locomotives or units as a "brace." A brace of something is two of something and no more.
