CSX Selkirk yard
Posted by streettrains on Friday, February 18, 2005 4:29 PM
Was wondering if anyone knew if they give tours of the yard?
Can I write or Ask CSX for permission to take pictures there?
if so where do I write?

or do I just do what I do, drive there and take pics along the road by the yard....
thanks

A great and safe place to take photos of Selkirk Yard is from Ben's Bridge (County Route 53). The bridge spans the yard making it possible to view the inbound yard, locomotive facility, and north departure yard.

I've never had any problems there. Just stay on the side of the road, sit on the guard rail, and you'll be fine. I usually stay a couple hours on the bridge.
