Jim Dodds General OK, so is there always at least one train a day then? I was lucky enough that in June of 2007 when I went to Camp Lakewood I got to see a Union Pacific AC44CW sitting on the tracks with its lights on when I was on my way to Camp Lakewood in Potosi. 8/30/2009 2:12:50 PM
Jim Dodds General And it was located right here in Park Hills. 8/30/2009 2:13:14 PM
D. Tom Conboy General No. They only run a couple of trains per week and the power on the line is usually of the four-axle type (GP38's). 8/30/2009 5:50:39 PM
