Dan:

In the mid to late 2000s (I think) they built some huge parking add on, or other building for something.  The vantage point from the above image doesn't exist any more as far as I know, or you are so far up that it would freak me out.  I am quite the acrophobiac.

If I can say so respectfully, you could do a lot of neat things in the 70s/80s that will get you shot today.  My last 'real' railfan trip was in 2003 or 2004...went to Perryville, MD at the STATION and set up my tripod.  Some knothead in the adjacent trailer park call the police for 'suspicious activity'.  A MD state trooper proceeded to park me in for about 35 minutes while we discussed 'my business' there. I haven't railfanned to any great extent since; its not worth the hassle to me.  With GG1s, E44s, E60s and now AEM7s all gone, there is hardly anything that really holds my interest.  I'm not a big fan of the ACS64...yet. I guess a whole bunch of folks said that about AEM7s when they came out.
