What's the freight traffic like at the depot there? How many an hour during mid-day approx? Im heading down there tomorrow to catch 11 and 14 and am wondering about how many freights I will catch as well. I know it probably varies.
SkyAdventures97 Well specifically tomorrow (7/14/15), there is crossing work at Market street so the line will probably be dead from after the northbound Z train moves through town about 8 am until the Starlight #14 around 2 pm. The Salem local will probably be running early in the morning as usual though. Hope you find some success!
Thanks for the quick reply! I guess ill just go into it thinking i'm only catching 11 and 14 and will see if i get lucky. Hopefully 14 is a bit late, as I cannot get to the station until 2;30.
Mychael Hall I have yet to take an Amtrak train anywhere, I've usually been obsessed with travelling alongside trains, not in them. Someday though I'm sure!
Nice video!
THANKS!!!!
God 14:47 that is why people are always getting killed by trains!!!!!!! Also nice catches

Have you rode on Amtrak before?
