Hello, welcome to my railway documentation channel!
I am a railfan\trainspotter both in the USA and Germany sometimes other European countries. I am American and lived in Germany for a few years from 2021 to 2026. In Germany I usually would post at locations in Nordrhein-Westfalen primarily areas around Düsseldorf or Duisburg. Currently I am in the USA and I am primarily documenting in the Midwest, Chicagoland area.
On occasion I also upload short videos of my N-Scale model trains and make posts with pictures from some recent videos.
And I now currently usually post 2-8 videos every month
Enjoy my videos!

Some photos from another recent video from Northbrook, where I happen to catch the METX 11 with the rail train twice more, which was nice but also some other nice trains, such as Amtrak 160 again and 301 for the first time, but also a CSX SD60i and CP (in CPKC paint) SD60 on the same train. (photos from November 4-6th)

Some photos from last video from November 3rd, with some great action in Northbrook. With Amtrak 160 on Borealis, a double BNSF on a sand train, a CSX YN2, and the highlight being Metra 11 with a rail train. I also caught the train again today, and hopefully again later this week.

Here a few pictures from my last video where I was only able to catch two trains during my time in Galena on October 24th. I heard M338 was coming later in the day and caught it at Buckhill road with a CSX YN2 and 100CN. But also in the morning I caught a BNSF mix freight with H2 5722 leading past River Road.

Photos from Sunday the 4th of October where I was able to catch KCS 2022 "Grey Ghost" (GP38-2) in Glenview (West Lake Ave) with CPKC train 246. Along with some trains from earlier that day in Northbrook too, including some good sun for two Norfolk Southerns.
(Hopefully soon some new locations, still kinda busy)

CPKC 7013 passed today in Northbrook in the CP heritage Maroon & Grey Script Scheme, then Metra 510 passed it with an MDN to Grayslake. Both with friendly drivers! (:
Video quality didn't work out too well unfortunately...

Some pictures from my latest video from Glenview (W-Lake Ave) and Northbrook (6th and 7th of September), where I attempted to catch CPKC 250, but the train got really delayed. I still ended up catching it in Northbrook quickly after hearing it departed, making it my first America 250 locomotive!

Little updates in this busy time for me:
- Made it to Chicago a few hours ago!
- I plan to post a best of Germany from my time (2021 -2026) in the coming days.
- And then I'll be in California, next week. Whether I get a chance to see some trains in California, I don't know, but if so I'll try to post.
- Then I start recording videos from the Chicagoland area, posting a bit less frequent than before, also on occasion I have unposted videos from Germany I will post.

Nun ist es also soweit: Hier sind ein paar Fotos von meinen letzten Zügen in Deutschland, nachdem ich fünf Jahre hier gelebt habe. Wenn dieser Beitrag erscheint, werde ich bereits auf dem Weg nach Chicago sein. Außerdem gibt es auf meinem Kanal ein Video mit allen aufgezeichneten Zügen von den Standorten Düsseldorf-Wehrhahn, D-Rath, D-Hamm und Ratingen West.
Vielen Dank an alle für die Unterstützung bis hierher! Weitere Informationen im vorherigen Beitrag.

Einige Fotos aus meinem letzten Video aus der Nähe von Kaarst und Meerbusch-Osterath, wo der TRI 111 130 auf der Rb37 unterwegs war und ich von der 218 497 überrascht wurde!
Ich versuche, so viel wie möglich festzuhalten, bevor ich abreise... :(
