William: Oh, there goes another train.
又开走了辆火车。
Wang Fei: What do you mean, another train? It was a D5900 Class diesel-electric locomotive, the last one in operation.
你什么意思，另列货车？那是 D5900柴电混合车头，最后一辆测试中的车。
William: Erm, ok.
Wang Fei: And due to arrive at 1203 is the Class 170 "Turbostar" British diesel-multiple-unit train from Edinburgh.
到达1203的应该是从伯明翰开来的Class 170 "Turbostar" 柴油混合动力火车。
William: Great.
Wang Fei: You don't sound very interested.
你听起来不是很感兴趣。
William: I'm not. You do realise that you are a complete anorak when it comes to trains, Wang Fei.
我不感兴趣。当提到火车时，你应意识到你是个有怪僻的人。
Wang Fei: An anorak? 你是说皮猴? Yes, I'm wearing an anorak, but I'm not a kind of coat,（我穿的是长皮猴，但我不是衣服） William, I'm Wang Fei.
William: Well yeah, well the word anorak is used to describe people who have an obsessive hobby about something that not many people are interested in.
anorak这个词用来描述对某物有特殊爱好的人，而大多数人对这些食物没兴趣。
Wang Fei: 明白了，原来 anorak 可以用来形容一个有特殊和古怪爱好的人。 Like train spotting? But I thought everyone liked it!
William: What's so interesting about standing in the cold, waiting for rare types of train to arrive? The only trains I'm interested in are the ones which get me from A to B.
在冷风中等待各类稀有型号的火车到来有什么意思？我唯一感兴趣的火车就是能将我从A带到B处的火车。
Examples:
He is a total anorak. He always stays in and watches Star Trek.
他是个有怪僻的人。他总是呆在家里看Star Trek。
My friend is a bit of an anorak when it comes to dance music. He knows every DJ and every track, when they were published, how high they got in the charts. I prefer just to dance to it!
提到舞曲，我朋友是个有点怪僻的人。他知道每首DJ和每首音乐。当音乐发行时，他知道音乐的排行。我宁愿只随着舞曲跳舞。
