Just opened it up and an intermodal was going by. Just met a coal train, but the power was cut off by an ad. :Censored:

Other than that, nice to see. I've been hoping for a U.S. equivalent of railcam.nl (streaming video with nat. sound).

was watching the camera and someone walked out in front of a csx train with less than a half second to spare, everyone in the chat thought they got hit

I've been here once, back in 2007 (some videos you can see on Youtube I have from there). The action was pretty busy.

I saw a slow (15 mph) intermodal come through, and then right as that train was ending, another slow, long intermodal come through. :LOL:
