Where? West Central Indiana, the "Crossroads of the Midwest" 30 minutes north of Lafayette. Not to far from any real train action if I want to observe, and gain some inspiration.

Here is mine. I'm in small town Otterville, Missouri, about 10 minutes outside of Sedalia (home of the MO state fair), 75 miles east of Kansas City, 35 miles west of Jefferson City, and 1/4 mile from UP's Sedalia subdivision.

they'll still never find me... even I get lost occasionally [:D] good thing I recall the unlisted phone number, but we do have a big dog, a neighbourhood bear, cougar, and coyote.
but Antonio is right...this is interesting, but mostly trivial (the map that I attached has one road by a lake... neither are named, so it's useless, but silly)[;)]

Antonio, I said at the beginning you don't need to zoom all the way in to the street level.
You have said in the past that you live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, so just use a general map of the area.

By the way, visitors are always welcome at my place, just email me first and get directions.

Oh thats right, I'm only 3 miles away!!!!!!!![:D]

Well I won't say get out and meet the neighbors, because it looks like you two are in the same club.
This is cool, because up until now I never made the connection, even though I seen many posts by both of you.

Here's where I am, you can see the commuter train station that's just a few minutes away, I can actually hear freight train horns in the late evening.

Not exactly what you'd call a large town. They don't even show the street names on the site. My house is in northwest part of town. It's on the street on the map that is between the street that heads west to a dead end and the one that comes to a corner and goes south. CP runs right alongside Highway 16.

Nice twist in this thread. Kind of fun to actually see where some of you are located.
I'm in the center of this map, in the town called Tuxpan. It's on the coast, about half way down.
The program didn't give me an option to zoom in any closer. By the way, this is about 10 hours south of the border.

http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=-10750000&Y=2250000&width=500&height=300&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=mercator&db=w3&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&zm=0&scale=10000000&multimap.x=219&multimap.y=107

I'd love to say there was a rail line near here, but I can't.
