  • You just gotta put this on your Railfaning "Bucket List"!
    Trains going thru the middle of town with Railfans enjoying Ashland's offerings and the camaraderie of all the railfans from Ashland, the US and even from abroad (Stephen Metcalfe)!

    I thought they only allowed cars on the tracks there; it was nice to see some trains this time.

    What a great festival for a community to sponsor, and a big thanks to the train crews who’s nerves were on edge bringing trains so close to so many people!

    They need to do this in EVERY town with a Railroad! That would be crazy, but yes it would be fun!

    Sounds like the engineers were enjoying the celebration as well, horns blaring throughout town and no complaints😀 just love that little town and that great hobby shop. Thanks for sharing that day.

      The quiet zone rule is lifted when they have events next to the tracks. Good time to come out and capture scenes with horn action in an area that doesn't normally have them.

      I was there for most of a day filming trains and the town and got caught on the Virtual Railfan video cameras, my wife thought that was good proof of where I had been all day, of course she knew I'd be near trains😀

      Perhaps you need to watch longer times. I like stay tuned in and usually get to see quite a few, especially during the morning and afternoon. CSX and AMTRAK have multiple trains going through on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. Enjoy!

    So, are putting all the trains on the wrong main?
    And are we sure it's Ashland? I didn't see anybody make wrong turn and get stuck on the tracks ;).
    Seriously, though, this was cool to see.
