Hey guys, i couldn't decide if i should pose this question in the Chicago Commuter Forum or here but I think because my question has to do with freight train operations that it belongs here.
Anyway, I know that Norfolk Southern owns the ex-Wabash tracks that run through Orland Park, IL from Chicago to Manhattan and I also know that there is some but minimal freight service to Manhattan along the Metra Southwest Service tracks. My question is when would I be able to see a freight train? I know that they run through here but I never see them. Can anyone help me?
Thanks.
