Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
I also saw the 8114 on 864 in Monroe on accident. We were goin to downtown and heard a horn.. so we drifted over there and bam there it was. XD
This is my life. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
If this is a problem get used to it.

Never seen one, only heritage was AMTK's F40PH in Toledo.
I'm just here to put in time claims and complain

Haven't seen any NS or Amtrak, just three of the UP units.

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
Seen NS 8098 (Conrail) and NS 8102 (PRR).
Saw 8098 on 264 in Allen Park, MI and NS 8102 in Toledo, OH with a Detroit Edison coal train (I'm guessing it may have been an 863?).

Re: ns heritage units: who has seen them and who hasn't
I haven't seen any NS heritage units in person. I saw UP 1982 (Mopac unit) in Nappanee in July '10, and 4 Amtrak heritage units in the past year.

Just the Southern unit for me. Caught it loading a coal train near Norton, VA back in April.
