Where is your favorite spot to railfan? One of my favorites is Deerfield on the Milwaukee District North Line.

[@Railfanfamily77]

I enjoy anywhere along the BNSF racetrack. I have too many favorite spots! Outside of the area I like Triangle Rail Park in Fostoria, Ohio

[@CSX4568Productions]

My top 2 favorites are blue island and downers grove

[@iamlorbosable]

Great stuff. My young son asked, why did the man climb the tall tower at Tinley Park? I would be grateful if you can tell us how you got up there.

[@Railfanfamily77]

Inside of the stationhouse there is a door and a spiral staircase that takes you up to the observation/tower area. Thanks for checking out my video!
