Any indication if this already made it north to West Olive or is parked in one of the sidings?

After passing Bangor, he had added his extra power at Wells & then continued on to West Olive.

Thank you Tom, maybe there will be a chance to see it in the return south.

Hi, the BNSF Executive engine was #9828 & was tied down in Wells siding this afternoon on an empty coal train as a rear dpu by R597-03. No idea when an "E crew" will be assigned to take the train from there to Chicago.

West Olive empties are heading south (They went through Holland about 45 minutes ago approx.). The BNSF executive scheme is one of the rear units.

Thanks, might see it south while I am working in the fields if it runs.
