Hello Terry, Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately the only thing I can tell you is that the Indiana Southern do run a few trains in daylight. They also run coal trains. I was actually there to railfan both the Indiana Railroad & the Indiana Southern. I really wanted a Indiana Railroad train, but didn't see any trains running the right direction for optimum lighting conditions. I saw 2 trains on the Indiana Railroad, but they were westbounds in the morning shooting into the sun, so no photos of them yet. I got lucky with the Indiana Southern, as they showed up where they cross the Indiana Railroad at Switz City & I chased them since they run north/south & can shoot trains most of the day with good lighting conditions. My advise would be to go to Linton & Switz City & wait for trains. You will see some action for sure. CP runs through Linton as well, but Indiana Railroad is supposed to buy that line from CP.
