I just moved and I live literally window to a freight train line, unfortunately it scares the crap out of my cats and so I'm trying to find out what the schedule is so that I can close the windows for them, and maybe put a little raspberry pi display screen saying something like "next train arriving in...." Next to my window

I'm a freight conductor. There is no schedule, unless you notice them happening at around the same time every day, you won't find a pattern. We pretty much get a call and hour and a half before we need to go in at any random time of day or night and that's when the train moves.
