An eastbound CSX autorack train (symbol unknown) rolls through Guy Park in Amsterdam, NY at 1:58 pm on Saturday, 05/02/2009. Traffic levels are noticeably down on the Chicago Line. In good times, a day on the Chicago Line would yield 20-25 trains. On this day, only 14 trains were recorded - and that's including Amtrak trains! Even more sobering was the fact that this was the only autorack train seen the entire day - normally 5 or 6 rack trains would roll through in the same period.
