SPV's Comprehensive Railroad Atlas

The definitive volume of US railroad maps — every mainline, every branch, every connection, with mile markers and dispatcher territories. You will memorize this. Multiple regional volumes; pick the one for where you railfan. ($30-$50 per volume)

Compact monopod for telephoto shots

A 70-200 or 100-400 at full reach gets shaky after a few minutes of waiting. Carbon-fiber monopod folds to ~16in and weighs nothing. Worth its price the first time you nail a 1/250s shot of a stopped train. ($40-$80)

Earpiece for handheld scanner

Scanner audio is unlistenable next to a passing freight without an earpiece. Standard 3.5mm right-angle plug fits the Uniden + Baofeng. Adds zero bulk to your kit. ($10-$15)
