Best Place for Train Watching in Balto?

[tom mann]

Here is what I'm looking for:

1.  Safe place (if possible).
2.  Lots of slow moving traffic (for good photos).  Or, nice public access to a yard.
3.  Nice Baltimore skyline visible.

Would this place work?

E fort avenue is good for photographing whatever is in the yard .. but hardly anything moves ..

you are better off over at the old Penn Mary yard

You can't really see much there Tom.

If you come to Timonium Solo on Saturday, I'll be going around to some spots with Russ and my friend Ben, I can show you some good possibilities.

If you want to do some more recon, I'm working on documenting good locations here:

Oooh!  A post show field trip?  Count me in!

I can take you to some of my old haunts.

Ooh, if y'all don't mind some extra company, I'd like to tag along.  I'd wouldn't mind a guided tour of some of the railfanning hotspots around Baltimore.  I gotta remember to throw my camera in the car.

Not at all, the more the merrier.

After the brief tour, we're heading here:
