Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS Columbus?? Anyone Seen Steam Engine on KRL 701223

This car was in Calumet IL NS Yard on Monday, 4/17/17.

Anyone out there in Illinois, Indiana, or Ohio see this car with the steam engine # 19 on board?

Maybe stuck in Bellevue?

Going to Spring Creek Ohio.

Wrong. Going to Sugarcreek, Ohio.

Is this the steamer from McCloud in California?

Hi Ross
Sorry but it has to get to Sugar Creek first and the only way to get there is
as follows
The flatcar has to come either thru from Chicago to Bellevue Ohio then South to Columbus and
given to the G&W the old Ohio Central
Or the 2nd way would be Chicago to Willard Oh on the CSX and then to Columbus on Q 635 and given
to the G&W THE OLD Ohio Central and then to the Age od Steam
Somebody has evidently stuck the engine in Calumet yard in Chicago Ill no sign of it and
nobody talking about it

What about the W&LE bringing it from Bellevue to Brewster then interchange to OC to forward to Sugarcreek?

Hi Chopperbill
Well it looks like the Grinch ate the engine and the flatcar as nowhere to be found

Well it was spotted. I was looking up past Chesterton Railcam recordings today on youtube and seen it's the 2nd car behind 4 NS Units seen today passing the camera this afternoon eastbound.
