Both units are going to Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso to power this year's North Pole Express.Tom49801 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 01, 2022 10:15 amI had to google what railraod the PNLX is and had found it's the Precision Locomotive Leasing Company. Their #7471 is a former Western Maryland EMD SD35 engine still having the same number & colors as the WM on their web page. The #57 is the former MARC (Maryland Regional Commuter) EMD GP40WH-2 engine & still having the same MARC number & engine colors also shown on PNLX's web site.
There's a photo of the MARC #57 taken in Sept 1992 posted on rrpicturearchives.net that was taken in Odenton, Maryland on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor where at that time I was based with Amtrak.
Amazing this was heard! His job briefing was heard on channel 1414 (Broadcastify's Grand Rapids Area Shortlines on-line scanner) time log for 08:00am/08:30am at time stamp 5:53 in the scanner archives.

12:12 - L305-04 heard talking to dispatch from Ensel Yard, ready to start their work in Lansing.
Will these be the only locomotives headed to SRI for the event? According to SRI, the North Pole Express will be running with only diesel power this year.

Excited these are heading our way. I presume they'll be taken to Ann Pere then north by GLC.
