One of the more popular posts you often see on many of the railfan related email lists is trip reports
from various locations. This is a great way to get an idea of what railfanning is available in a given area. This is
a new feature (as of 2007) on AlabamaRailfan.com and I hope to add lots of these reports as time allows. Look for images and
video clips from various railfan outings! Hopefully, this will give you some insight in to the possibilities for railfanning
in the "Heart of Dixie"!
