    A friend has a house in Cobelskill and he wants to know how many CP trains run through on the old D&H tracks these days.
    Any help would be appreciated. Times or rough estimates would be great too. [​IMG]

    Hi John,

    Cobleskill sees 3 regular trains each way daily plus a fourth southbound thrice a week. There are several coal trains a week, but they do not operate on a set schedule. Plus there are occassional extras.

    Regular Trains

    Southbound

    550 very early morning - from Montreal
    554 close to the time of 550 from Montreal - usually containers - 3/week
    272 late evening - from Saratoga and Guilford
    269 late morning - from Albany NS containers

    Northbound

    555 late afternoon - to Montreal
    273 early morning - to Saratoga and Guilford
    268 mid-day - to Albany NS Containers & power

    8858 & 8859 are coal trains loads & emties
    can run anytime


    Hope this helps.
