Re: NS and CP Updates 2023
NS 121 with just under 12,000 feet is holding at Milwaukee Junction. They’ll be the first train thru the new Beaubien interlocking with a sexy 5 mph speed restriction.

NS Train Locations - August 2023
NS WB through Dexter 2:20 pm today (Saturday 8/5/2023). I would assume B25, but B25 isn't listed as running on Saturday. Car was mainly steel coil cars of various predigrees, with covered hoppers, a couple tank cars and a couple Omni Gons and a single Amtrak Ballast hopper. Couldn't see power as it was by the window at the library before I got to the window.

Re: NS Train Locations - August 2023
Is B2T an extra of B25 (or was this fast typing and fat fingers, hitting the T instead of the 5)? B2T isn't listed on the NS Symbols page.GTW6401 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 7:37 pmNS B2T Saturday job with 6169 and 3229.chapmaja wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 2:27 pmNS WB through Dexter 2:20 pm today (Saturday 8/5/2023).

Re: NS and CP Train Location Updates 2023
SouthernMichiganRailfan posted "backing up into its destination" at 9:15 a.m. (August 13th), Belleville, MI, on "Heritage Units!!!!" OK, this train was at Toledo, OH for training purposes last week (for those who don't know)! Now it is going to Rawsonville Yard for training August 15-17! They had NS SD60E #911 with NS GP38-2 #5642! They took off NS 911 on train W33 yesterday to Bellevue, OH! Why'd they do that? I would like to see both cool units together! Maybe 911 will joint the train again! Or, does it need servicing first? I am looking at catching this train hopefully Thursday August 17th with "Railfan" Gary! Will it depart the yard after the event at 5:30 p.m.? Or sit around? "No Access" to the train or events in the yard!!!!LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Sun Aug 13, 2023 7:08 amNS 900-13 with NS 4231/NS 5642 at Oakwood Yard waiting for new crew to take it to Rawsonville.

Apparently when it ran from Oakley to Toledo, it had a symbol in the NS system of B65-19. I’ve never heard of that before.
