You are watching a live stream of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, for the purpose of watching trains. You are welcome to join our family friendly chat. Please read the rules below.
These cameras are owned and operated by the Oklahoma Model Railroad Association at 4300 N Sewell Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73118. We are a 501(C)3 non-profit organization with a 6,000 square foot HO scale model train layout open to the public for free every Saturday 11:00am - 4:00pm and Sunday 1:00pm - 4:00pm. Please visit https://www.omratrains.org for more information.
ABOUT THIS FEED:
This is the BNSF Red Rock Subdivision between Arkansas City, KS and Gainesville, TX. The cameras are located at milepost 380.7 "Nowers." BNSF's Red Rock sub is a part of the former Santa Fe mainline between Chicago/Kansas City and Fort Worth/Houston. The camera currently averages 20-25 trains a day (including but not limited to: manifest, intermodal, vehicle, local, unit and grain trains). Amtrak's Heartland Flyer terminates 3 miles south and does NOT pass the camera. Nowers is a crew change point, so most trains will stop here for a crew change. The interstate in view is I-235.
TRAIN LOG: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_LJM9jytq0VX1zc22TwimzkbjbwNxpv1hUZJNiLB7zk/edit?usp=sharing This log has been running for almost 4 years, documenting every single train that passes the camera with the time it passed and information about each train. There is a wealth of information on the spreadsheets, including helpful links and resources. Please look through everything to learn more about trains in Oklahoma City on BNSF's Red Rock Subdivision.

CHAT RULES:
• This is a train camera in Oklahoma City. While some other conversations are okay to a degree, please keep those two subjects the main focus. Avoid making irrelevant small talk just because the chat is quiet.
• Weather: It's inevitable in Oklahoma, but please, keep the chat about trains. No one needs you to "warn" us about a watch or "save" them with whatever information you heard on the Weather Channel or a YouTuber about a town 100 miles away. If it is relevant to the camera at the time, *KNOWLEDGEABLE* weather chat is okay, as long as trains come first. Remember to avoid the three I's: irrelevant, incorrect and idiotic.
• Please use English, we need a single language to be able to understand each other. If you’re not fluent, use a translator such as Google Translate: https://translate.google.com
• Don’t post in ALL CAPS or use excessive emojis, you don't need more than two to get your point across.
• Don’t discuss politics, religion, race, sex, violence, or anything like that. We try to be mindful of any children who may be watching.
• Again, the conversation here is trains, and please remember that it needs to come first.
• Please keep conversations of personal issues (medical, domestic, legal, etc.) out of the chat; take it to messaging or email. Remember, you are sharing information with hundreds of people, not just those involved in the chat. It's not train related anyway.
• Don’t ask to become a moderator.
• Please attempt to not write gibberish. Everyone has typos, but don't make it consistently look like you just slammed your head into your keyboard and hit enter.
• Please don’t use our chats to seek attention, stand on your soapbox or blatantly advertise your channel if it is not relevant to trains in Oklahoma.
• Please, just use common sense and don't be stupid.
THINGS THAT WILL GET YOU BANNED:
• Joining for the sole purpose of spamming about severe weather that is not relevant or doesn't exist.
• Not following the moderators’ instructions
• Inappropriate usernames or avatar
• Profanity
• Coming into the chat for the sole purpose of asking for subscriptions (subs) or to blatantly promote your channel
• Being intentionally disruptive, creating arguments or any other jerk-like behavior
• Blocking a moderator (including Nightbot)
• Not using common sense.
The original start date for cameras at this location is 5/26/21
