Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS 1074 update?

Good morning! Anyone have an update on NS 1074? Or a call time out of Chicago? Thank you for any info! Have a great day! Tim

I don't have an update on this train, but I do have a field report from MDH in Rochelle, IL, that the BNSF there is a cluster right now. There's a dead westbound stack train at Flagg Center and a manifest that has been instructed to cut away a locomotive and go rescue it, except that first they have to back their train up to clear a hand-throw crossover. That would tend to keep any westbounds that are east of Rochelle from advancing for a while.

Departed Western Ave @ 7:46 am with a 3:45 am crew. I'm awaiting it at Aurora, not by here yet.

Train is in Savanna, IL at this time.

Edit: They dropped the trailing NS unit and now the Lackawanna is backing onto the train again.
