Eastern Railroad Discussion > Brand New ET44AC's on the NS Memphis West District

Today, NS empty coal train #733 (Scherer, GA to Memphis, TN BNSF) left Sheffield yard, in Muscle Shoals, AL, with 4 brand new ET44AC's: NS 3654,3652 and DPU's NS 3656, 3650. These engines are part of a 34 unit order that is in the process of being delivered and "set-up". This may have been the first revenue trip for these units.

The first photo with the train stopped near Tuscumbia, AL waiting for track maintenance to finish.
The second photo near MP424.5 from the Natchez Trace Parkway overpass.
The third photo at the west end of Glens siding, Glen, MS

Thanks for looking!!

These will probably make the trip to Wyoming and back with this train set. Perhaps a Western board heads up would be appropriate.

I like the look of Pic 2!!
