I made this clip to see which place was better to watch trains. I dont which place wins. La Plata and Rochelle might be a tie, but I think La Plata beats all though if you want heavy traffic and speed well La Plata is the place to be along the Transcon. Rochelle is also a good place to watch trains too. All of these trains were filmed by me in 2010. You tell me which one is better? 2001 is also introduced in this clip.

Jul 20, 2010 - The high speed and many trains makes for some fun shooting. But that classic old train station in Kirkwood is such great scenic background. It looks like you have made your decision. Great clips.
