Hi friends, <br /> <br />Firstly, sorry for some of you who might have read my message posting in trackside forum. I've moved (actually copied) the message to post here to get more chance of being noticed. I appreciate warm welcoming message from Allen. Many thanks to him. Just would like to know more in specific where I can obtain information for rail spotting. Below is my original message. <br /> <br />I am a new member to this railfan forum. I was a recent graduate student from SUNY Maritime College in New York and long time train lover from Thailand. My train spotting hobby has long been stalled even before I came from Thailand due to my busy studying and working. I took some train pictures when I visited home two years ago, and have some pictures my dad took for me when I was a child about twenty years ago. I will find a chance to scan all those pictures and post them somewhere (I do not know yet). So you guys can see what the GE, Alsthom, Krupp, Hanschel, Hitachi looks like. Or if anyone lives not far from me maybe we can meet and I will bring the photo albums to show you! I would appreciate if anyone can give me a suggestion about how to start train spotting in this country without any problem with security or making anyone paranoid. I live in Rockland County, NY, and have been to Iona Island near Bear Mountain Bridge sometimes. I can go anywhere and do anything I want in my country (I mean nobody talks about security over there.), but I do not know for sure if I will be asked or caught if I stop by near the rail track and take some pictures in America. Thanks a lot! Waiting for good recommendation. I am belong to another railfan site in Thailand. Unfortunately, it is only offer in Thai, but you can browse some pictures if you like. Just visit http://www.yimsiam.com/club/board/frames.asp?wbID=fanrotfaithai The right picture on the top of the page is a 2500 hp GEA No. 4540 imported in 1995. I do not know for sure where exactly in America this loco was made. Thanks again. <br /> <br />Karn
