You look up, and, all of a sudden, there they are.

That might be the only place you can watch electrics on VR.

I’ve got VR’s feed of Ashland, Virginia, on right now. There are three kids with a camera set up on a tripod on the platform waiting for Amtrak 80 and 90. That’s a nice place to watch trains.

Edited: four kids with two cameras on tripods.

Northbound Carolinian is by Ashland. Northbound Palmetto is still at Richmond. Southbound Silver Star, 91, just went by. The kids went for the shadowy side view. Kids today! Southbound Autotrain is out of Lorton. Maybe CSX will send a freight through to liven things up. The scanner feed is online.

Now 124 is on the way.
