I'll check these out. turns out I can get a better grayscale with the 
huge files but the resolution is too low. Covering many thousands of 
square miles so I can sort of get it. The examples on their site look 
better. So I have the date but can't see well enough.

What do I look for for Google traffic data. traffic cams probably exist 
and I'll let my attorney know. I'll have to check the other users of 
that line. Not sure how but I have the time. I need a universal type of 
train schedule for that line.

thanks for the suggestions!
