Ok, I did some fanning at Point of Rocks today. Low and behold, there on the door of the old B&O station is a Trains. Com sticker. Guess that means I should post a pic or two?
I know you can't see it clearly, but the yellow thing is the Trains.com sticker:

And here is the Station itself:

You should try Harper's Ferry near the bridges. The west bounders are intent on getting over the 9 mile grade that they are working up speed for. And the eastbounders just came off it and are drifting thru and over the river.

I am happy you enjoyed the trip. The pictures were pretty good. I bet a shot of the station clerk surfing the computer onto trains.com thru the window would be the bomb =)

(Do they STILL have clerks?)

To tell the truth, I was at harpers ferry the day before most of the day (See "Non Brunswick railfanning" category on my webshots menu). From what I understand Brunswick is the only station with a clerk now. Harpers Ferry station is now owned by the park, and will be restored soon (Their gonna rebuild the tower [:D])
