Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS Safety Train on the move?

I just received word that the NS Safety Train with the Training First Responders engine departed Canton, OH at 11:30 a.m. I presume it is headed west in a general direction toward its next scheduled tour stop in South Bend, Ind., and would expect it to make a right turn at Bucyrus to operate via Bellevue, Ohio.

If it made good time it could easily be to Mansfield by now. Field confirmations welcomed.

Clear Mansfield at 1400. Currently sitting at Attica; 1600 current time. They are going to Sandusky per the CO on that train.

That's a lot of crews! Unless they're just using a yard crew to get to Sandusky, which could be the case.

What's the weather like?

Cloudy down this way with intermittent sun.

If it gets through Bellevue without dawdling too long, it could have decent sun in spots if/when it reaches Toledo, but the sky's been getting cloudier all afternoon.

It has been parked in either Bellevue or Sandusky all night. Now has a crew, and will be moving this afternoon toward Elkhart.
