That is the problem I also face.....train schedules....I've sat for hours waiting for trains to pass my favorite bridge.....then when I'm all packed up...ready to go home.....the next train zips by....LOL....TIMING is the key I guess. The trains in my area are Union Pacific and Amtrak, and since there are no crossings near the bridge, there is NO distant horn blast to give a heads up.
WHen I was actively shooting, I used a handheld scanner set to the local railroad frequency, that way I know when the train is coming. Living here in Las Vegas, the only trains are the Union Pacific and on other local lins and a Museum line called the Nevada Southern. Not much activity here. Cajon Pass was great for chasing trains.
