Did you catch all 16 trains in one day there? I ask that because I'm in Jamestown a lot but rarely if ever see any trains there? Mainly on the weekends though. I really liked the Sheol car at 1:40, that was a nice bonus on a great video. Well done!
Thanks benchedthatpiece!...Yes I Caught 16 Norfolk Southerns & 6 Amtraks That Day Making it 22 Captures I Got to Jamestown at 7:00am & Railfanned There Until 8:pm
Jamestown, North Carolina is like the Grand Prairie, Texas of the east coast. Think of it this way, Grand Prairie is on the Union Pacific Dallas Subdivision, and Jamestown, North Carolina is on the Norfolk Southern Piedmont Division. Both rail lines are just about equally busy at most times, and most freight trains through both towns/cities do between 60 and 70 miles per hour. Another thing: both corridors see a lot of hotshot double stack trains. Only real difference I can really see between these 2 important corridors is one is on pretty flat terrain, and the other is near the mountains.
Hey man. I used to live in Jamestown and remember watching trains as a kid; I haven't been back in 15 years. Could you advise the best spot to catch some trains in Jamestown? Thanks!
