B1G - The Big Train

Well James, you have CSX M326 and M327 that run but they dont stick to a daily schedule so you'll have to figure out a day they both run. Usually CSX run's 2 coal drags through there a day. Amtrak 370 and 371 also travel down the CSX. (370 is mornings and 371 is nights) for AML wise you have one NS local (B05 I belive) he dosent run a daily schedule he only runs a couple days a week but heads north and back south after the trip up there. The AML also see's 8 Amtrak trains per day. You cant view all the action in one spot but the CSX has a really good spot with an old coal tower the tracks pass under (I belive its a coal tower) New Buffalo usually see's 12-16 trains a day just depends.RoyalKingoftheRails wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 1:11 pmI'm doing a trip to New Buffalo MI within the next few weeks, how much action does CSX and the Amtrak Michigan Line (NS Locals) get? I know not all of the CSX trains on the GR Sub run that far south, but I'm just trying to get an idea of what I can expect. If someone could help me out that would be awesome.

He only swapped 370/371 around, big whoop. He's quoting 12-16 trains total for all of New Buffalo, not for just the CSX.David Collins wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 2:17 pmWrong, wrong, wrong.NickThatRailfan wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 1:19 pmWell James, you have CSX M326 and M327 that run but they dont stick to a daily schedule so you'll have to figure out a day they both run.

Oh crap, my mistake. I read his 12-16 trains a day comment as 12-16 trains under that coaling tower a day.Saturnalia wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 6:49 pmHe only swapped 370/371 around, big whoop.
