Hi I am new to the forum and had a question regarding the rail line running throught Worthington, Ohio. I am thinking about moving to Worthington, kind of close to the tracks, and was curious what kind frequency trains run that line (ie Schedules). I tried finding the frequency on many websites and this seem like the best place to ask. If there are any websites were I kind find this information please let me know. Also, anyones insight on this here in the forum would be appreciated. Thank You
I work in Southern Delaware County, about two miles north of Worthington, near the CSX and NS ROW's at Powell Road.
I would guess that about 40 trains a day or more uses the NS Sandusky Line - I very, very seldom see an hour pass without a seeing a NS train pass.
About 6 trains a day use the CSX Columbus-Galion line. Traffic on the CSX is unpredictable - with the crazy-quilt patter of lines in North Central Ohio, trains seem to vary their routes day-day based on crew availability and the state of operations at Willard. I suspect CSX would like to get rid of the line and move the traffic via Ridgeway and the ex-TOC line. They usually move intermodal that way since that's the direct line into the IM yard at Buckeye.
