About this cam

A static SouthWest RailCams feed at the Tommy Shults Railfan Photo Pavilion in Flatonia, Texas, hosted by the Central Texas Rail History Center, overlooking the diamond where Union Pacific's Glidden (MP 119.9) and Cuero (MP 101.8) Subdivisions cross.

This SouthWest RailCams stream is a static camera at the Tommy Shults Railfan Photo Pavilion in Flatonia, Texas, hosted by the Central Texas Rail History Center (the Flatonia Railroad Museum). It overlooks the diamond where Union Pacific's Glidden Subdivision (milepost 119.9) crosses the Cuero Subdivision (milepost 101.8).

Union Pacific and BNSF freight trains, along with Amtrak's Sunset Limited (#1/#2), pass this location; the operator's timetable lists a maximum speed of 50 mph for both passenger and freight movements here.

Two radio channels are carried on the integrated feed: 161.265 MHz (AAR channel 077) for the Glidden Sub and 160.470 MHz (AAR channel 024) for the Cuero Sub, plus a defect detector at MP 107.2 on the Cuero Sub.

What to watch for

Watch for movements crossing the diamond from either direction -- Glidden Sub traffic and Cuero Sub traffic -- and listen for the MP 107.2 detector on the Cuero Sub radio channel.
