On the northbound Coast Starlight (#14), how many freights does one typically cross (meet) or overtake between Los Angeles Union - Seattle?
What is the busiest section of track for freights?
Are they a mix of intermodals (container) trains and 'manifest' (general loading) trains, or are there oil trains in the mix as well?
As I lack a detailed USA rail atlas, what sections of line between LA Union and Seattle are double track and which are single track with crossing loops?
