Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
I'm up to 2 now- the N&W in September 2012 and the Lackawanna today (4-23-14).
The 1074 wasn't leading, but it came to me, at least 2 hours from the closest NS line. No extra miles, vacation time or gasoline investment required

NS 1074 - Lackawanna. I didn't know what I had until I got home and opened up the digi editor. Later I read Ron's post. I knew this guy was coming, and if I hadn't been so intent on the HESR / CN / GLC in the yard, I would have walked closer to the station to snap this one. Oh Well
This is a different view, and should be good for a few summer time afternoon shots after the sun gets around to the north west. I was over on Main street to snap the HESR that I knew was coming into town. I also got the GLC headed south, which I'll post tomorrow.

Haven't seen any here. Seems every time they're near my home I'm either at work or out of town. I have seen all but one of the Amtrak Heritage units however (missing phase IV).

I'm up to 12 now, as I caught the Wabash unit yesterday shortly after the NKP 765 excursion arrived in Elkhart.

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
I've seen 8. I think. Lemme see if this list is right... PC. NKP. IT. SOU. NYC. MGA and LV. And this past Saturday, the Wabash. There was almost a year gap between NKP and IT.

I got the Interstate Unit to stop and pose here in Chesterton for a short time todayJ T wrote:Jeff has specials railfanning powers. He's the iron-horse whisperer.
I got some pics of it going by the depot a little bit ago and will upload them later (if my laptop stays running..keeps crapping out on me.)
Train is currently a few miles west of Chesterton now.
Unfortunately I slept thru the Reading unit last night.

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
Here is the Interstate Heritage Unit I saw on Sunday.
This is also the first post on my second refurbished laptop. (First laptop died yesterday...bought used, probably cost more to repair than replace.)

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
A little over a year later and I finally saw it in "daylight." It is dark and cloudy, and has been here for several days now in the Michiana Region.Jochs wrote:I'm up to 6 now....just saw the Central of Georgia unit at Porter about 25 minutes ago.
But unfortunately it went through when it was too dark for pictures.
Here it is on a westbound freight(didn't catch the train ID) going into Elkhart Yard about 15 minutes ago:

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
Caught 8114 yesterday. That makes 20, but I've only got pictures of 18 of them, and I want to shoot 9 of those again to get them leading in the sun.

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
No NS heritage units for me, but I have gotten two UP heritage units whatever they were?
I'm still trying to get my first KEEP6 wholecar... *sigh*
