Youve probably already talked about this in another topic, but after frequently visiting the chicago area i noticed a few things wrong with the "trains per day section." First i live along the former Wisconsin Central now CN mainline north of Fond Du Lac WI. the traincount normally climbs above 20 and can see upwards to 25. thats north of Fond Du Lac, where as the Chicago sub can reach as high as 30 trains per day not 12 as described. Also the Norfolk southern Chicago line and CSXTs Chicago lines carry more traffic than shown as the lines tend to reach 60 trains per day later in the week not 32 trains. A few others: the Union Pacific line west doesnt carry 70 freights/ day, the former Grand Trunk mainline runs more trains than that. The Canadian Pacific traincount isnt that high, and wheres all the CP and CSX trains that run northeastward via porter junction to Grand Rapids and Detroit. <br /> I do realize the "count" was supposedly taken on a Monday, but honestly the traincounts are way off. If anybody notice this i'd be glad to hear about it. <br /> Thanks
