Pinsly Z915
Title:  Pinsly Z915
Description:  Train is leaving CSXT's rails at Robinson Street in downtown Orlando. It *really* is "bad on this side of the tracks", as attractive as this shot seems, I do NOT recommend waiting here for long, unless the train is right around the corner.

Pinsly Z915
Title:  Pinsly Z915
Description:  During the winter months, a northbound FCEN move off CSXT looks good here in the afternoon...but do NOT linger. Even tho' Orlando Centroplex & Marriott are behind these trees, it's a seedy area known as Parramore. Wait down at Robinson Street for the train & follow it here & BEWARE of people wandering the tracks. I only got to get this shot 'cos no one was hanging around.
