Train Watching

Yesterday Jer n I went to a popular little town about one hour southwest of Brunswick Ga.  to "Watch the Trains".  Seems this is a very popular past time for a lot of folks around these parts. Actually people from all over the U.S.A have been there to check it out! They have a guest book you can sign...that's how I know! If you Google..Folkston Ga. you will see their web site...they even have a little video you can watch!  We arrived just in time to see a 55 car container train come through!  About 1/2 hour after that...the next train came by. That one was 110 cars of coal and 3 diesel engines. I have to admit...it was a bit of a rush to stand there as these huge cars went whizzing by!  There are fourteen on more trains that come through everyday. It's a train watchers paradise! What a fun n different way to spend the day!

Oh my! I now see there's another place we have to go! My hubby, Dan, is a retired RR man - 39 years with Norfolk Southern - so we LOVE anything trains! Especially since it is our retirement ;). We never miss a chance to ride a train, see a train, read about a train...you get the picture. What a cool place! Thanks for posting this - I am sure it will go on our bucket list now!

How fun! We would love being there to watch, too!

I remember going to the airport to watch the planes when I was a kid. Back then you could go all the way to the gate and just watch them come and go. And, when I took my Dad on the Delta Queen back in 1995 I was so impressed that folks in small towns along the Ohio River would get up at 3 AM to watch the Queen pass through locks.

What a fun post!

Even tho' the days of steam have passed, there's still a thrill in watching trains go by. Thanks for sharing. Jx

Great shots! My son loved to watch trains when he was little. It's been a long time since I've done anything like that.

It's fun to watch a train chugging along. Sounds like a nice way to spend the day.

Judy said...

My home town has a footbridge over the RR tracks, and I still remember the first time my sister and I stood there as a train rushed under us - scared us both silly and we had to run away from it. I haven't thought of that in years...

A Colorful World said...

What a great day! If you look on my sidebar to previous posts there is one called Postcards...it is a TV show excerpt of me being interviewed when I worked at the the Suffolk Seaboard Station Museum. If you like trains you might enjoy it!

Roan said...

I love trains. Great shots!

Tracy said...

I love train photos. You really have some great shots. What a great place to practice with your camera.

Rose said...

I like trains...but never go just sit and watch them.

Do you live in Brunswick? We were there in September of 2011....

Everybody tends to be very insightful and helpful. Supposedly, by the
end of the day, comes from the word Paleolithic.
The paleo diet goes by many names, including the human diet.
Soybeans are a legume and still meet the calorie needs. Yes, these
apps are coming, but they are also associated with an increased risk
of CVD.
