What railroad/railway do you live near?

[Moojgoo]

Tell us what you live near! Here in Mongolia, I'm near the Mongolian Railway, (that is the name), and in the US, the Hartford and New York Railroad. I've seen trains run on both. These two rail lines are NOT the same guage. The HNYRR is standard gauge (4' 8 1/2"), and the MRW is 4' 11.85", Russian gauge.

I have five lines within 1.5 miles from my house, with regular appearances from six operating companies: Virgin, Arriva Trains Wales, Merseyrail, Northern, Direct Rail Services (DRS) and English, Welsh & Scottish (EWS). The lines are:

Wirral Line
Mid-Cheshire Line
Severn - Dee Line
Chester - Manchester Line (LNWR)
North Wales Coast Line

And within a 30 minute drive there's the famous West Coast Main Line

I live to the south of the line of Mainz-Bingen and west of the line of Mainz-Worms and Mainz-Alzey, formerly there was a railway line that ran through town but following the mass invasion of lorries in the 1950's it was abandoned and soon after destroyed, ironic as were is still existing it would be cheaper and quicker to use a modern rail bus to get into Ingelheim (big town everyone goes to) than it is by car.

I live almost on top of the midland mainline in Birmingham, quite often I can hear flanges sqeeling as the trains head into New street station
Very handy if I want to go anywhere by train.

 

[BLACKWATCH]

Don`t think they have a name for the line here, I`m in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. we don`t get much to speak of really.

Although this 8F did go through twice today on a special.

I'm not to far from the EJ&E line. A few miles out is the former Chicago & North Western (now UP) North West line. A few more miles there's the CN, CP, and WC lines. Now if I were to go into Chicago then I will see NS, Amtrash, the "EL", and a few others.
