Does anyone know, on average, how many trains travel over the CN mainline just east of Edmonton, Canada? Recently I drove past Antler Lake and parked near a siding and from 12:30 to 16:00 only three trains passed by. Two were eastbound and one westbound. Is this a normal day or is it, as I hope, a below average one? Thanks.
Though i’m not from around there (I’m from Vancouver) it sounds as though that would be a little lower than average but not unusual. Try a different time of day, midmorning perhaps, and you may see more trains.
