The route into Chicago appears to be the same as it was with I&M Rail Link. There is an early morning arrival (6-8 AM) at Clearing. I haven't seen any other arrivals or departures. I have spotted both ICE and DME power laying over at Clearing.
The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

Are they still getting in over METRA trackage rights? Has the route changed?

Don't know how many a day, but you will probably see ICE, and CN locos. They interchange with the EJ&E also.
