<font color="#000080"><font face="Arial">Probably the furthest we've been is 600+ miles to see trains on the world famous Horseshoe Curve outside Altoona, Pensylvania as well as the railroad museum there. We've also visited a train museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin, which is 800+ round trip. I'm the train nut and my husband likes aeroplanes, so this was a twofer.<br> <br> Before the price of gas went through the roof we used to make weekly pilgrimages to Burlington West, Bayview Junction, Guelph Junction, Paris, Brantford, Welland, to name a few. </font></font><font color="#000080"><font face="Arial">We also used to go to a spot on the Halton-Sub just north of 10 sideroad, east of 25 Hwy, near Scotch Block.<br> <br> </font></font><font color="#000080"><font face="Arial">Sometimes we'd cross to the US side and go and watch trains at the Amtrak Depew Depot, on the outskirts of Buffalo, also at the firehall on Broadway, near the CSX Frontier yard. Now, because of the price of gas, that only happens if we have to cross the border for other reasons. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </font></font>
