Where is a good train yard(with lots of consists) to go see?

Question

I live about 70 miles south of Dallas, Tx. Not much money and don't want to break any laws, just want to go watch some trains. My son loves trains and likes to watch them as well. I would like to find a place where I can get close to the trains(or consists) without getting into danger(like some kind of observatory point for interested people!!!!) Me by myself is one thing, but I want a safe place to take my son to!!!! Any ideas??? Thanks from the Rooster!!!

Nice and safe for the little guy. Might be time to introduce him to model railroading too!
