Railfan Guides to Pennsylvania

Get the skinny on my favorite places to take pictures. How to get there, What radio frequencies to listen to, What to look for (trains), and what to avoid (Railroad Police).

• 29th and Walnut Streets, Philadelphia. A great urban location. Lots of freight and passenger trains pass by this Philadelphia street corner.

• Fairmount Park North, Philadelphia. Lots of trains in a nice setting. If you like bridges, here's the spot.

• Fairmount Park South, Philadelphia. The junction of Conrail's Harrisburg and Trenton lines. A classic photo location.
