I've been a railroad fan since I was in the 5th grade and now that I'm in my mid 20's I love those trains more than ever, it is a real treat for me being able to watch those long freight trains go by. I prefer to railfan between Olympia and Longview. That might be further than you want to got but there are many places where you can just get off of I-5 and park trackside. And some trains cruise along at a good clip. And there are lots of them. One of the spots I like because of the hill is Napavine. It's no major hill but it's the toughest on that line. It's probably the only place on that line where you can see trains grinding by in run 8.
