Trackside Motels
John C. Smith
dumbfounded to discover that there was not one, mind you, not one motel
from the state of Texas. Sir, I consider this an outrageous overside that
will not go unoticed. I therefore issue a challenge to all the netters
in Texas to fill Jeff's mailbox with motels that are trackside. I will
even be so bold as to include those people from surrounding states due
to the fact that even though New Mexico had quite a few, there were
only a couple from OK etc. Ok, everybody on the count of three.

rail lines with a view of the tracks from your room. To
verify the view, ask to see the room prior if in doubt. No
guarantee of cleanliness, service or quality. Railroads
listed can be seen from the room. The list is compiled
from information gathered by myself and that provided to
me by my railfan friends. If there are any places that
meet the criteria listed above, that are missing from this
list, please e-mail me so I may add to the list and resend.
