last I heard they are waiting on parts for both locomotives and an inspector that has to come out of somewhere in OH. Sounds like they've been running these things ragged and finally the FRA caught up to them a couple of weeks back on their trip down to Wyoming. They are using the GP38's until the SD40's are road worthy again.

As of Saturday the SD's were showing in the computer as being north of Kent City. The 3001 was outside the engine house Friday night making for a cool shot against the CSX geo car.
