[Scan-DC] Anyone Railfan?

[Doug Kitchener]

There are some good places to watch the Norfolk Southern down around Nokesville... I don't know the territory at all but have been down there with my buddy - but will try to remember to ask him where we were!  Those of you who are familiar with the route of the right-of-way should be able to figure it out, I guess... one guy who was with us nearly got mown down by a freight that was going about 80 in one spot... we were right next to the tracks and there was nothing to keep us from laying down on them if we had wanted to (!)

For the NE corridor, the Seabrook station is a good one... there's also another one farther out, off Route 175 near Odenton.  I sorta had it in mind to go to one of those two to watch the Obamatrain, but was too lazy as I live pretty far west of the NE corridor.
