Can anyone suggest any railfanning spots around Salt Lake City? I'll be there for about 2 days during the week. Thanks!

Take a trip from SLC to Ogden, at the old depot there are some old locomotives and what not, and some other stuff inside to see. Then leave Ogden and head east threw Ogden Canyon to a place called Echo, get on I-80 east and head up that canyon to the top. You will be trackside almost the intire trip, you'll be able to burn about half the day.
