Number 90, if you are ever in my neck of the woods. I love to have company, to show

my layout off! It is in a 50ft. Rock Island box car! I have done a lot of work to

my layout. But, more I would like to do. Not to many folks around here that likes

trains, With around 80 trains a day though town and I live so close to the tracks,

they think I am crazy Crazy about trains!

Not sure of the milepost, but I live about a mile away from the Allegheny Valley Railroad. This is in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, PA.  Thanks to the Marcellus Shale gas boom in the area, I hear 4-5 trains a day. I'm pretty lucky to live within a few miles of the Norfolk Southern, CSX, Union RR, and Wheeling& Lake Erie.

Ya beat me too it, my local Railroad, too...live a couple of miles from their main team track/service area, live about a mile from their second one. Always wondered how this line has survived, growing up in the area they always called it 'struggling', but seems to be doing just fine. I also am about a mile and a half from the NJ Transit Morristown line.
