Webcam Location
Lake Shore Railway Museum
The Lake Shore Railway Museum is located in North East, Pennsylvania, inside a historic train depot along the main rail line by Lake Erie. The museum showcases locomotives, cabooses, and railway artifacts that tell the story of the region's railroad history. It is especially known for its collection of General Electric locomotives, many of which were built nearby in Erie. Visitors can often watch modern freight trains pass right next to the museum, adding to its charm for railfans. Although it's not a large tourist site, it's very popular among train enthusiasts and families interested in historic railways.
The webcams show the busy railway tracks that run directly beside the museum. From these live cameras, viewers can watch long freight trains operated by CSX and Norfolk Southern rolling through day and night. The cameras often capture modern diesel locomotives pulling tank cars, boxcars, and mixed freight trains that stretch for hundreds of meters. Occasionally, Amtrak passenger trains can also be seen passing by on their way between major cities along the Lake Erie corridor. These webcams are popular among railfans because they offer a close, real-time view of active mainline rail traffic, making it possible to experience the excitement of the railway without leaving home.
