The message below (that begins besides) is from a rail friend of mine in  
Cincinnati - I asked him for suggestions for you & this is his response. I  spent 
a year in Cincy, while in college in the mid 50's, & found it to be a  very 
scenic, friendly town. I have visited about once every 5 years since then.  
Winton Place (north of town) is a great place to watch trains. Enjoy.

Besides the railway Museum of Greater Cincinnati there is a brand new  
mega-train facility that opens this weekend. There is a 25,000 sq.ft train area.  
This all in G scale.
There is a web site EnterTrainment junction.com. There is also the  
Cincinnati  Historical Society in Union Terminal that has  a ho scale  of rail lines in 
downtown Cincy in the 30's and 40's
 
 Also at the terminal is Tower A that has a great view of the CSX  Queengate 
yard and the NS Gest St yard Tower A is open on the weekend . It  is operated 
by The Cincinnati Railroad Club I believe they have a web site which  might 
list an evening that they are open. 
 
Railway Museum is open Wed & Sat 10 to 4 . Admission is $ 4.00
 
Hope this gives you some talking points
