Author: exhaustED In my experience over the last few years, a 12 hour daylight stint on Cajon pass has typically yielded about 45 trains... so by logical extension that's about 90 trains in a 24 hour period. It can obviously be a few less or a few more on individual days.
Prior to the economic crash in 2008 it was about 100 or even more per day... and the 3rd track was built to ease congestion and to allow for 150 per day if ii remember correctly. Date: 04/05/20 14:19 Re: Trains per day through Lugo, CA? Author: zaltwsp7 Thank you cinder for that cool photo.
And exhaustED for the insight :) That 150 train count would be cool to experience, but maybe not to the RR. |
