I think I had the best of both worlds. One block east of my home was the PRR, and best of all the PRR yard. One block west of me was the great WMRY. I used to watch both alot. At the PRR yard I could watch the turntable running, engines in the roundhouse and see what was going on in the train shops, and when I walked to school I could watch the WMRY switching on major sidings in my town. Thirteen miles north was where Reading track began and 24 miles south was the Hagerstown MD yard. Although I never went to Hagerstown to watch as I couldn't drive : ) . Also though I don't remember (lol no I am not THAT old) there was the Cumberland VAlley Railroad. So I have to say I enjoyed myself alot and have MANY nice memories.
