NS 4000 or 4001? On Intermodal
Author: cornerfieldhobby

According to Heritage Units this morning, which I hope it's not another false report, that's why I ask here, it shows 4000 at 10:04AM Northbound leading 2 Dash 9's hauling Intermodal at Fast Pace in Fostoria Ohio. I wonder though if it's 4001 since 4000 just a day or so ago was in Roanoke and 4001 was going to Chicago just recently. But 4000 could also be on a CSX Northbound Intermodal heading towards Toledo. But I thought I would ask.

4000 bad ordered for Roanoke; 4001 was assigned to 218 last night.

So probably it was 4001 he saw pass through Fostoria.

And yes 4001 is on 218 leading. So it was 4001 that passed Fostoria. Wonder why they put Nortbound instead of Eastbound.

I was referring to when he went through Fostoria was eastbound and out of Bellevue it's southbound.

Because not every webcam foamer who watches that understands the geography in Fostoria.

The person who made that bad spot also has a history of getting engine numbers wrong from other cameras.
