just wondering if one day like today when its not this cold and I overslept if going down to Durand at night would be worth it. I've never done that before.

I never did a 24 in Durand, but did do an overnight last June. Traffic between 11pm and 3 am was hot and heavy on that night. I do not know if that was the norm or the exception, though.

Anywhere between 30 and 40 trains can go through town and, yes, most at night.

Best time to be in Durand is at night during the summer.
