Given that there is a minimum of 0 trains during the night, then there must be a finite limit (based on line capacity), so a number somewhere between these limits must be the Lagrange multiplier...

My struggle is finding a decent NS based webcam without subscription, (I have very limited funds as it is until I get back in work,) but the only options seems to be the likes of Horseshoe curve where you cannot easily identify loco numbers, let alone car numbers, which is something I am interested in. CSX gets lots of coverage in comparison.

I quite like the Thomasville NC one which is free & pretty much 100% NS

Railstream's free (but ad supported) ones are all on NS lines. Chesterton IN is nice and busy.

Those Geeps and the caboose at Fostoria appear to be the local transfer power for the yards around the Iron Triangle.

 

I believe it's a GP38-2 and a road slug rebuilt from a GP30.

 

Deshler also has a pair that run the local freights, usually seen going along the single track over the diamond and into town. I believe those two are a GP35 and a rebuilt GP30 road slug.

 

I've got photographs of them somewhere.
