Eastern Railroad Discussion > You never know what you might see, surprise Interstate unitDate: 09/22/17 15:17 You never know what you might see, surprise Interstate unit Author: VFPNSFAN I was hoping to catch 39G west bound, but this east bound hopper train came by while I waiting. To my surprise it had the 8105 Interstate unit trailing. Video taken at Railroad Street crossing, Limerick PA.

I saw four trains over the course of maybe two hours head east through Topton last night around the time I would've expected to see it based on the HU posts but none had the 8105. As of late this afternoon Anville, PA was still the last post from last evening.
Nice catch Doug! Dan Posted from iPhone Date: 09/23/17 05:51 Re: You never know what you might see, surprise Interstate unit Author: VFPNSFAN It was train 520. Per a post on FB group PhillyRails, this is a loaded coal train ultimately heading to Germany. Possibly more of these trains in the future.
Thanks Dan, this was the unit you and I talked about a few years ago when it was tucked away at Abrams yard.

If I recall there was a BNSF special pint job too!

Visible through the leafless trees bordering the yard at the back end of the oufield of the baseball diamond behind the fire station. Very easy to find LOL.
