So it should b in Collinwood by now. An hour between Perry & Wickliffe, it must've gotten stopped somewhere between there, its only about 20 miles.
Keep the updates coming, I'm in Marion now, no cell service once I leave, as soon as it departs Collinwood, I'm heading to Greenwich to get it on the curve.

It just left Collinwood. Behind E940, which has two CSX SD70MACs.

Nice shots, Rich! A couple friends and I successfully shot it in Brocton (NY), North East (PA), Conneaut, Painesville, Willoughby, Collinwood and Berea. We were going to get it again at Willard, but decided to opt out of that to get Q117 with a pair of AC6000's in New London. With all the problems CSX is having right now, Indiana people may have a hope for a daylight run... Maybe. I wouldn't count on it.

Got a message at 7:20am saying it's "not to garrett" but another message from someone saying it arrived at 7am and still in Garrett.

Re: 1982 Westbound Watch - K68320
I just want to thank everyone in this post for the updates. I was able to leave Marion at 6:30 yesterday thanks to ConrailForever, arrived at Greenwich around 7:30, and it came through at 8:25. I didn't get the greatest pictures with the light, but did manage to see it at 5 locations between Greenwich and it leaving Willard around 9:15.
They stopped for only about 5 minutes to swap crews in the middle of Willard Yard, I could've gotten a sweet night photo of it, but didn't think it would be a good idea to get out and take a picture with about 15 CSX employees all out to see the engine.
