Hey all,
Having done some research in the meantime, I figured out that I live next to the former Kansas Pacific line that started out in Leavenworth and goes all the way to Denver. I'd like to go railfanning along it, mostly because I can and because I've never really gone railfanning in America before. I would be very thankful if you guys could provide me with the following:
1. Radio frequencies for hot box detectors, axle counters, signal boxes etc.
2. Timetables or at least times and days when trains usually run more frequently.
3. Good spots to photograph trains on the line.
4. Locations of industries and businesses that have their products/materials delivered or taken away by rail and when.
5. Switchyards, major meeting/passing points and crew change points.
6. Any other information that might be helpful for railfanning.
Oh yeah, if any of you might have some of that info for the part of the BNSF Transcon that runs through Kansas, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with it as well
Greetings from cold, sunny Manhattan,
