Fostoria, OH cam #1

This is the same cam as a few months ago, but that link does not work anymore. Click this sentence for the new link. BONUS: If you view it right now, then you will see crews working on the Norfolk Southern side of the crossing!

I am sorry

I am very sorry that I could not deliver the promise of the live updates. At first, we could not figure out the netbook, and when we did, we were already on the way back.=/ Although I am going to clean up the posts(except for the post with the Boron pics.), the follow by email tool is still up. I will also keep the expired Boron Poll below the labels tool until July, which is when the next poll will start.

A few things...

First of all, do not forget to check Traintalk for more updates than that of on here.

Second of all, this blog just reached 4,000 pageviews!

Third of all, I am at the hotel in Tehachapi.

Fourth of all, both devices go crazy whenever I try to post a live update, so hopes for that are shattered.

Fifth of all, here is a recap of all of my trains in Boron from yesterday.

US 395:



North American Chemical Co.(aka: some private crossing that landed in the middle of Boron with signals)




Rocket Site Rd.

Wa wa wa...

I just stopped by at Cajon Pass, but I saw no trains.
Unfortunately, the IPad is having a big stink about uploading images, so I will get to the netbook once I have time.

Poll Closed!!!

US 395 wins! However, if the weather and conditions are correct, then I will try to stop at all four of them... At the beginning, I told you that there was one crossing that I would have stopped at no matter what. That was Rocket Site Rd.

A few new features...


  • Along with the other two "talk" blogs, which got this first, is a new +1 system, at the bottom of each post, in which you can +1 a post if you like it. Notice: You must have a valid Google account to give a +1.
  • I am testing another new feature with this blog, which is the "reactions system, which is also at the bottom of each post, on which you can rate your reaction of the post. Funny, interesting, informative, and who cares are the four choices.
