Generally, southbound and westbound train numbers are odd numbers and northbound and eastbound trains have even numbers. Some railroads use letters instead of numbers to indicate the origin and destination of a train, such as Z-LACATG, with LAC is Los Angeles CA and ATG is Atlanta GA. The Z, Q, P, S, H, M, and such letters on the front of the letters may designiate the priority of the train. with Z being the highest priority intermodal train and M the lowest priority general freight train. Some railroads use Q to designiate coal trains and other railroads use Q for intermodal and auto trains, so it depends on the railroad. <br />On train railfaning, last Sunday in Memphis we had 19 trains pass Kansas Ave. in 6.5 hours. We were short on trains until 6 trains passed in 45 minutes at the end of the day. We usually see about 3 per hour.
