Sadly, the UK railway scene has become less interesting. UK passenger trains are now almost all fairly boring multiple-units and the occasional short fast freight is almost bound to be hauled by a member of just one locomotive class - the EMD Class 66. Consequently, North American railroads become even more attractive. I visited Illinois in 2000 and was far from disappointed at Rochelle. This year a friend and I spent a terrific week in Pennsylvania, watching trains at Altoona, Horseshoe Curve etc. The question is: where next? I have the Kalmbatch "Hot Spots" guide but can anyone recommend any other favourite busy / scenic / friendly locations?
