when i was 12 or 13 i used to live in Ottawa, IL and i would go watch the local BN crew switch the small yard in town. every afternoon the train would come down from aurora to take a trainload of sand north. i was offered a cabride the one time but declined...the 'don't accept rides from strangers' was hammered into a kid's mind u know. as a consolation one of the trainmen let me give the engineer the highball over the radio. another time when i was around the same age my dad took us to the CSX yard in ottawa to look around. we were approached by an employee there and my dad told him he was takin us kids for a look at what was goin on there. the guy was kind enough to take us up into the cab of an engine...#1522 a GP-15T. gone are the gp 15's...now i see dash 8's and sd 40's-60's there. so, i was trespassing, but that would never happen nowadays...
