Is there any way to find out the times that trains go through Clifton on specific days?

I'm trying to find out if any trains will go through the town on December 25th.

Amtrak and VRE both go through. Maybe you could check both websites?

I'm not sure if CSX rolls through there or not, but you can give them a try if you're looking for a freight train.

877-744-7279

I don't what extension you'd try. Maybe #6.

I've seen Norfolk Southern go through as well.

Come to think of it, if you're counting on a freight train I'm not sure how much look you're gonna have "schedule" wise. Having dealt with the railroad for a fews years trying to track down freight in cars that we were waiting on, I've found that since the railroad is basically Union, they do whatever the fuck they want whenever the fuck they want. They might quote you a time on a certain day, but don't hold your breath. If they think that they're going to be anywhere close to cutting into overtime, they won't even bother. Good luck, though. I do like me some trains...can't really explain why.
