All I did is to type 1 in the box beside " train "and then you see the word " check " on the same line and change from " today " to " yesterday " and you will...
The slow down in the economy sure has reduced the number of freight trains. If it wasn't for VIA trains, it might not be worth going to the tracks. At least...
