Gifts for Rail Fanner

Hello!! My boyfriend doesnt know Im asking this, lol. I wanted to get him a train themed gift for his birthday but I wasnt sure what he'd like. I got him a custom railyard sign for our 6 month anniversary. I just wasnt sure what "railfanning" gift to give him next. He really likes taking photos of trains, and also has a t shirt for the steam railroading institute. I was going to get him a jacket that had the amtrac logo on it- but Im not too sure if he'd like it. So I thought the next best thing to do was ask other rail fanners what THEY would like for a gift. I also was thinking of buying a cool camera I saw on Amazon, so he could take pictures of his train finds. If anyone has any tips, please let me know. I really like him, and want to make sure he has a happy birthday (:

24/7 Lakeshore West GO Train Railcam & Live Transit Tracker

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share a new resource for local railfanning and transit watching. I have launched a continuous 24/7 live feed of the Lakeshore West tracks running through the Swansea Corridor.

The feed features a custom live tracking board running on the official Metrolinx API, so you can see active train departures, trip statuses, and system delays right alongside the video before the trains enter the frame.

Drop by anytime to relax, watch the meets, or help log train timestamps in the chat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HongS1sx4pY

Big thanks to the mod team for letting me share this with the community!
