What is your favorite camera and lens to use for train photography? What settings have you found most favorable? I know we have alot of train photographers on here, so I thought I'd start this topic.

I haven't gotten the chance to do any train photography with my latest gear, which really bums me out, but what can you do?

Canon 300d
Sigma 18-50 mm lens
(Hopefully soon) Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD 1:2

Canon Powershot SX120 IS-Point and Shoot but takes GOOD pics

Nikon N2000 35 mm SLR
Vivitar 18-70 mm
Vivitar 70-210 mm
