Just wondering how many trains a day still roll through Sault Ste. Marie, MI? I am moving there and want to know how much action I will get to see everyday.

I'd guess no more than a daily train, and possibly less.  But perhaps that train might come in two parts depending on if CN uses a separate move for traffic across the bridge.  Better hope they don't usually run at night. 

You will likely see more action across the river in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario, with the Huron Central to Sudbury, and CN freight and the two passenger operations north on the former Algoma Central.  Just remember to get a passport so US immigration will let you back home!

Thank you.  Even a few trains is always better than no trains.  The Canada side does sound like it holds promise though!
