Best day/time to see power at Cedar Hill

[mcgrath618]

I’ve made a few passes on Amtrak, sometimes l see engines there, other times nothing. I’m passing mid-late morning & returning mid afternoon. Thanks for any help!

Do you mean Cedar Hill yard in New Haven, Hamden and North Haven, CT? If so, there is usually CSX power at the northern end of,the yard, visible in North Haven at the PC Richards parking lot, or from the flyover bridge. At that point, the main line (Amtrak) is on the western edge of the swamp. The Airline Lead also leaves Cedar Hill at the same location, and you can occasionally see a stone train.

When I posted the question the site had me logged in with another profile.
I pass on Amtrak and am looking for something like this:

Are there better days/ times for power layovers? Thanks!

There are some rough times on this RR radio page. Look for CT Southern CSO-1. There are some CSX and Providence and Worcester, although the latter don't seem to have a set schedule. Many freights run when Amtrak or CTRail aren't around to bother them (night). Similar to the Shoreline run east of New Haven.
