      Famous among train watchers and rail buffs, this viewing platform is located on the twin railroad track known as the Folkston Funnel. Nearly all rail traffic entering or leaving Florida passes by this spot which has led to this name. The viewing platform has a public address system tuned to the railroad dispatcher's radio frequency.

      About a block away is an old depot that has been converted into the Folkston Railroad Transportation Museum with several artifacts and historic photographs from this railroad. The Train Museum at the Depot is open from 9-5 Monday-Friday and 10-3 on Saturday
