The webcam isn't always viewing the exact location of the listed coordinates, it covers the Horseshoe Curve trackside observation park, which is several hundred square feet of area. It will also capture trains at various angles around the curve. Be patient, it will come around to this spot. We waited about 20 minutes to be in the frame. There is also a live streaming You Tube page associated with this webcam.

The Horseshoe Curve trackside observation park is only available during business hours, check the website for more information.
