Weekend rail traffic through Maybee

Unread post by redlodger »

Hello everyone,

I'll be visiting family in Maybee and Dundee this weekend,from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning, and I was wondering what sort of traffic I might find on the former DT&I. Reading other posts, it sounds like CN operates L585 daily, once in each direction, and IORY operates to Flat Rock on Saturday, also once in each direction. CN L585 is southbound in the early morning, and northbound in the late morning, while IORY arrives in Flat Rock late in the morning, and leaves again around in the early afternoon. Is this correct?

Is there still an ice cream place in Carleton near the tracks? That might net me a trip to Carleton with the family late Friday afternoon or evening. Is there any CSX traffic around then?

Thanks,
Mark
