Gabe, <br /> I live in Vandalia,IL and there are a lot of train watching areas around here. The CSX line through here is moderatly busy at best, except from St. Elmo eastward where UP traffic joins there and they have trackage rights. There is a town called Kinmundy north of Salem where the IC crosses the UP, the crossing is located near private property but if you ask the owner I'm sure he will let you shoot there. Effingham is good also. Here in Vandalia there is a shortline(Vandalia Railroad) with an old switch engine and tower. There is a couple of cabooses also. If you come up this way, e-mail me and I can meet you somewhere. My e-mail is tonystewart15@Yahoo.com. As far as a lot of trains, then Galesburg is probably the best. Other places I recommend are Centralia, Salem, Tuscola, and Gorham. I hope this helps.[:)] <br />
