Railfanning in Florida

Hey guys,

I've been busy planning my vacation which will probably be in Florida. I'll be all over the state (sort of a trek, you might say) and I'm looking for railfanning spots that are worth visiting. So if you have any tips on locations / areas that are of interest...?

It doesn't matter which part of the state it is in, we've kinda settled on Florida, but we'll be traveling around for about two weeks. So: shoot! :D

You will want to visit the Folkston Funnel, technically not in Florida but just over the line in Georgia. Also, you need to visit Jacksonville. There used to be a railfan guide published by the Sunshine Region of the NMRA. Also, there was a video tape about Jacksonville too.

You could hit the south side of Jacksonville and see what's swingin' on the Florida East Coast (FEC).
