The Scoop:

The

One of the more favored places in the area to railfan is Berea, just southwest of downtown.  Here you have the CSX and NS mainlines heading into Cleveland and they are a mere 100 feet apart.  If you have the patience, you will be rewarded with a shot of two freights coming thru at speed, and they are neck to neck.  It's a sight you won't easily forget.  I was VERY lucky, and only had to wait about 10 minutes!  My page for Berea is here.

The transit system in Cleveland is covered on it's own page here, this page will concentrate of the class 1's CSX and NS.
