Is there any "set" schudule for B&LE trains north of Greenville, or are all the Conneaut-bound trains run as needed. I was thinking of heading over to the Albion area to see if I could photograph anything, but I was trying to minimize my chances of coming up empty if I could. Anyone's knowledge of schedules on the line would be greatly appreciated

No set schedule. There is no coal at all going via Conneaut (North) so operations are very limited. Usually only one or two turns a day. South of Greenville there is a somewhat reliable (for the B&LE) movement of loaded scrap cars to Butler in the late afternoon (4:00 or 5:00PM). This train usually turns at Butler yard, but may go all the way to North Bessemer, depending on traffic.
