Trackside


Welcome to Railfanning.org

MARIETTA, Ga. – There are a lot of people who have never heard the term railfanning. But many people are familiar with the concept.

Along the rails of America, stretch from one coast to another, you will see people standing beside the tracks enjoying the splendor of trains. Whether it is a freight train, a passenger train or an excursion train, little parallels the adrenaline rush caused by a train barreling past at 60 mph.

Please let us know you stopped by – sign the guest book.

Who are we?

HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. – We’ve got Norfolk & Western coal cars, Southern box cars, Chessie System hoppers and Amtrak passenger cars. And at Train Kept A-Rollin’, we look for the many different flags that can be seen on America’s railroads.

We’ve created an e-group , hosted by Yahoo Groups, to better manage the pictures, which range from such as exotic locations as Marietta, Ga., to Hopkinsville, Ky., and several points in between. To join the group, click here.

The art of photography

ATLANTA – Great vantage points are key to quality railfanning photos.

But, before a vantage point on any quality can even be considered, safety must first be ensured. Trains are big and they will not stop. Don’t get in their way.
