Trains of Southern Illinois - Invidious

Trains of Southern Illinois

Hello friends my name is Mike and I'm a Railfan from Southern Illinois. I love trains and filming them. It's a fun and relaxing hobby for me, and being outdoors is a huge perk (I love both nature and weather). On this channel you'll find a library of train videos and railfanning adventures from small towns and rural areas throughout the Southern Illinois region. Some videos will contain other topics about railroad history. We have numerous railroads in the area that I railfan, including NS, CSX, BNSF, CN, and UP. My goal for this channel is to film interesting and unique trains, and offer as much content variety as possible across different railroads and locations throughout Southern Illinois. I hope you enjoy my videos featuring the sights, sounds, and beauty of trains in the Midwest. Please be sure to like and subscribe for more. Thanks for your support!

Lines I railfan:

NS Southern-West District
CSX St. Louis Line Subdivision
CN Centralia Subdivision
BNSF Beardstown Subdivision
