At my week day apartment when at work, I 'live' 1.5 miles away from the 'Leiden to Utrecht' passenger rail lines, with trains every 15 minutes or so, and 3 miles from Leiden central station, in the Netherlands. Weekends I am back in the UK, and live about 2 miles from the Great Western mainline near Newton Abbot, from London to the southwest via Plymouth) seeing various passenger trains and the occasional freight.
I live several thousand miles away from the nearest US based railroad where my real interest lies however, so the above proximities are of very little interest to me, and I hardly go and 'rail fan', although I do travel by rail from time to time.
I rely on info that I can find on the internet/books/dvd's etc.
