UP 2001 on the NS maybe?
Is 2001 still in Bellevue or did it go out on 15E if so at what time was this?

UP 2001
Any word on UP 2001 as of December 1, 2010?
admin edit: merged the thread started by csxindyline with this one, don't need two topics on UP 2001.

Re: UP 2001
Wouldn't make senseto shuffle a UP unit deeper into NS territory. That is unless it has one of those NS lease tages which I'd doubt it does, considering it is a UP Heritage unit
Re: UP 2001
Roger that. Pretty odd it would come back from Elkhart. UP usually doesn't like the heritage units/special schemed engines going off system at all, let alone going east, coming that close to home and going back once again.KCS_RR wrote:It didn't

Re: UP 2001
They usually go straight back. Back to Bellevue makes no sense if it is trying to get back to UP rails.
Think about Franklin Park, the heritage unit goes in the night before and goes out the morning after its done. Something says they like 'em!!

Re: UP 2001
Once it gets on a foreign railroad there is nothing UP can do. NS is power short. Do you really think NS cares that it is a heritage unit when they need an engine? UP might be wiser on their run through engines.
The dispatcher is cool.

Re: UP 2001
Its NOT a heratige UNIT. IT is a specally painted UNIT, but NOT a HERATIGE unit. And the pair have been off line more then you guys think. It's just another SD70M to UP.
