About this cam
The operator lists two main tracks and a spur: main track 1 is CPKC at MP 402.5, main track 2 is BNSF at MP 422.2, and the spur leads to the Marathon Refinery. It says the feed offers views of CPKC, BNSF and Amtrak traffic and covers the refinery spur as well. Its network sponsor line credits the Newport Club, and the on-screen caption names the Newport Model Railroad Club.
The frame checked was taken at night and shows foliage in the foreground under a bright light at the right, with the caption reading West on the left and East on the right; no track is visible in that frame. The channel also runs a separate Newport Mississippi River camera, which is a different view.
What to watch for
CPKC, BNSF and Amtrak trains on the two mains at Newport, plus the spur to the Marathon Refinery. The night frame shows only foliage, so check the picture by day.
