Eastern Railroad Discussion > KCS at Marion, Ohio 12/28/12Date: 12/29/12 12:59 KCS at Marion, Ohio 12/28/12 Author: columbusrailnut Last night I went to Marion, Ohio to watch some trains. Spent most of the evening at the depot but we did make a trip out east to the intermodal facility to see a set of KCS engines leave.

Wondering if there is any new info on when the Q106/Q107 goes back to being a straight St Louis move, and the new Q108/Q109 does the N Baltimore to Marion flip. Date: 12/29/12 13:53 Re: KCS at Marion, Ohio 12/28/12 Author: farmer Oakway Wrote:

January 22 will be the start up date for Q108 and Q109. Posted from Android Date: 12/29/12 14:03 Re: KCS at Marion, Ohio 12/28/12 Author: Oakway Any idea on schedules or power assignments? Wondering if the KCS power would be used on the flip. Thanks!

Wonder if the KCS power will be used for 108/109, or a whole other set. Either way, C&O days are numbered.

I have no idea where the power from this train comes from however I have always heard it often has KCS engines, this is the first time I have seen the KCS power on it.
