Its been quite a while since I was dating a woman from Elwood, long distance. She lived on Anderson(IN-13), just between South B Street and the track. If memory serves me, you can expect just two daylight trains most days, possibly three. Cargill has a grain facility just to the west, in Tipton, which gets serviced by unit trains. South C Street is actual street running track for about 200 yards, west of Anderson Street. Red Gold was always a late night, 11 pm to 2 am, switch when I was there, but that could have changed as well. Inbound corn syrup is all they receive by rail, and no rail shipments out of there.
