CPKC Sabula-Chicago trains per day
Author: GN1969

Does anyone know how many trains per day CPKC are now running on their Sabula-Chicago line?

I'd say 2 each way regular.

180 SB(west) at night and 181 NB(east) late afternoon or evening. They the Mexico trains.

Then 253 West and 252 East are regular freight. They can be daytime or evening, sorry don't follow that closely but know they can vary. There can be a stray extra. Clinton or Davenport sees a lot more traffic and there is local working out of Savanna. Hope someone fills in better.

According to the CPKC Amended Operating Plan of May 2022 filed with the STB (see attached chart), the segment between Bensenville and Davis Jct had about 3 daily trains pre-acquisition. Three years out, it is expected to see 8 more daily trains of which the MMX pair is two. So currently there should be 5 daily trains in this segment. Between Davis Jct and Sabula drawbridge there should be about 8+ daily trains currently: 6+ pre-merger trains plus MMX trains. Anyone know where the additional trains come from on the Sabula Drawbridge-Davis Jct segment v. Davis Jct-Bensenville?

Right now its 252/253 and 180/181. There is a local that comes down from Beloit to Davis Jct. Also in the past they have run a night K68 local out of Savanna to Davis Jct but dont think it is running right now.
