Eastern Railroad Discussion > You railfanning me? I'm railfanning you!Date: 11/22/12 06:30 You railfanning me? I'm railfanning you! Author: VFPNSFAN While rail fanning our favorite spot last May waiting for the 8102 heritage my daughter struck up a conversation with a couple who were also waiting for the 8102. Turned out the guy was a volunteer engineer for the West Chester Railroad. We exchanged a few emails and engineer Glenn was nice enough to invite us for a cab ride next time we were there. Needless to say you did not have to ask me twice. Thanks Glenn and all the guys at WCRR!!

Author: robbie Great pictures -- and really heartening to see there are still places where a family can get invited for a cab ride! Ever since 9/11, I'd been afraid that such days were gone... Hope your family will have the same great memories that I still have when I got a cab ride on a CSX freight as a kid!
