There are two routes to your non- railroad vacation destination....a 4 lane Interstate, and a 2 lane state highway that will add an hours time to the trip....you choose the slower 2 lane route because it parallels the Railroad Mainline in hopes of catching a train...

You approach a railroad grade crossing and hope to be stopped by a train.

Does any body have any good ones? Only one I know is you might be a railfan if you call out traffic signal indications as you go through a intersection.
