I hope you enjoyed yourself! It looks like most of the advice (and it was all good!) came too late for your trip, so I hope you'll report back and tell us how you felt about the experience.

Or just put the camera phone down and enjoy the moment.
If you are going to take photos, limit yourself to just one per train... it is a lot more fun to be seeing the train for real than to be looking at it through the viewfinder.

Be safe above all and stay off railroad property.
Enjoy yourself!
I plan on going railfanning or the first time later today on the UP’s double-tracked mainline through Elkhorn, Nebraska. I’ll probably just be usin my phone since it’s all I can use right now, and I may only be able to be down there for an hour or two. Any genral advice for me?
