Welcome to the main page for the city of Anaheim, CA. There are various locations around Anaheim to photograph trains. Depending on what your choice between mainline railroad action or the thrill of chasing a local around individual sections of town, chances are you can find it in Anaheim.
I have broken the main page up into several sections to make viewing and navigation a bit easier.

Anaheim has two class one railroad lines which pass through the city as well as one of the fastest growing commuter lines in the nation.
The BNSF Railway's San Bernadino Subdivision which is their main trans-continental route between Chicago and Los Angeles runs along the north side.
They also have a short branchline called the Growers Lead which comes off the Metrolink's Orange Subdivision (former Santa Fe) near the border of Anaheim and Fullerton.
The Metrolinks Orange Sub runs through the middle of the city with a station that serves both Metrolink and Amtrak located on the north side of Angel Stadium
Photos from the two areas mentioned above can be seen on this page
