CoG Heritage Unit Location?
Author: chessierr

Any one have an update on the CoG heritage unit? Heard it was to leave Conway this morning.

Guess again. It has a Cleveland short pool on it, by CP Wood a little after noon.

8101 was cut off at Conway... Single NS Dash 9 leading now.

So how so we have one report saying it left Conway leading and another saying it was cutoff? Which is it?

Just when I think I have all this figured out it changes. I was just relaying information about it leading when it left Pittsburgh according to some "other website." Apologize for the erroneous information. Like being married; just when you think you have it figured out WHAM it hit you sideways. Everyone please be wary of the changing weather later today. Supposed to get pretty gnarly...Hope to run into you again there Erie833

The report of it leading out of Conway was an assumption - the two leaders were cut off and a solo Dash 9 is now the power for the train.

The NS computer shows NS 9744 as the only unit.

Hard to figure out sometimes that why they cut the power off...oh well. Always next time for those of you that went out to get it...

Well, the 69Q goes to the BNSF at Chicago. Maybe they're trying to keep any more Heritage units from going on a Tour of the West for a while.

Plus the 69Q really doesn't need three units across Ohio and Indiana, anyway.

I agree with you. Three units on an empty ethanol train in kind of a little on the extra side...

Doesnt mean all three are under power. Units could be on-line just along for the ride. One AC gevo could power that train
