That beats my record for staying at Iona for nine hours.

Saw 8 trains tuesday morning & afternoon @iona. 4 were oil trains (one northbound with csx power, 2 southbound with BNSF & CP power). Didn't take note of the times, though the longest lull was maybe an hour & a half.

Hopefully the next time I go up the river I'll see some freights
Has the river line switched from regular to narrow band or just bad timing on the defectors

Hope to see at least one Union Pacific engine or Norfolk southern
Do they show up much or is it mostly CSX power
