The house I have lived in for 49 years is within 100 feet of the tracks. Have been retired for 20 years, don't leave home often, see what is left to see by day, shine them up by night with flood lights if need be, hear east bound trains coming by the DD at 64.0 and west bounds from the DD at 39.1, even if there is no signal caller. There is always the E.O.T transmitter announcement when within a mile or so as well.. and of course, leave the scanner on at night because at my age, I don't sleep well anyway. I had better night time sleeps in my younger days when I had to get up 6-8 times in the night to see a train when CP was still running here. Back to sleep within minutes, but if I missed any of the locomotive numbers for whatever the reason, it kept me awake the rest of the night thinking about it.kd_1014 wrote:BL2 do you work or live by the tracks where you see Q329 and Q328 every day? Or is there some sort of webcam or something?
