आम लोग: "रेल फैनिंग आती नहीं". RailFans: "रेल फैनिंग जाती नहीं" - Md Asif

Possible. But awareness is always seen relatively. May be what i m aware of Indian Railway, you may not be aware of same and vice versa. So a blanket assumption of yours that i m less aware is in bad spirit. The most appropriate reasoning of your views could be , the part of country where i have stayed in last few years, had very few old red livery trains. Honestly i have not seen any such coloured trains between CSTM-kalyan, which handles substantial train movement.
I still also doubt about your figures, to me 30% looks exaggerated
