Was in Grafton this weekend. It was very quiet. Is this a coal only line, or is there other traffic?

Hi P
There is other traffic also such as Q 316 & Q317 freight and then the A&O shortline comes in different times

I think this is the ex-C & O line?  Probably used to be much busier...

My mistake--thank you!  It must have been a busy, glorious line in B & O days.  What's the average train count now?
