Oops forgot to mention if you are looking towards the west the UPRR tracks are actually on quite wide left hand turn which starts before the grade crossing & ends some distance after the rail crossing. If you look at my web site you will find Colton in the S. California galleries which IMHO give you a much better view of the action [:)]

Think you may need a fisheye or a very wide angle lens for that. I would estimate that at the street crossing it is 100 or more feet between the 2 RRs set of tracks. Also from the grade crossing to the rail crossing maybe no more then 200/300 feet [:)]

Thanks for that,
Would a panoramic photo include a view of both tracks simliar to the official one, or is the angle too spread out?

The webcam is located on top of the roof of the seating area which is several steps up from the bottom. Then the parking lot & the train shop then the street which crosses both the UPRR & BNSF tracks [:)]

As I live in the land of Pantomimes, I am curious to see a photo from the end of the viewing area looking back towards the webcam at Rochelle. I feel sure this must have been covered in previous forum topics so perhaps someone could point me in the right direction too with a suitable link. Sorry I can't help being nosy.
