Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS Merchandise Trains With DPU?Date: 07/09/19 08:44 NS Merchandise Trains With DPU? Author: NSSpike As a result of the “Top 21” plan I am aware of the following trains that are being run with Mid-Train DPUhere in the southeast.
ID ORIG DEST 126 Chattanooga Roanoke 142 Birmingham Elkhart 154 Birmingham Linwood 178 Birmingham Bellevue 186 Birmingham Macon 320 Sheffield Birmingham 329 Birmingham Memphis 347 Chattanooga East Point GA Possible Candidates Not Confirmed 130 New ORL Chattanooga 314 New ORL Birmingham 345 Birmingham New ORL 355 Birmingham New ORL What other merchandise trains are known and confirmed running on the NS system with DPU applied? Realizing on some days for any given train based on tonnage, DPU's may not be required. Thanks NSSpike Phil Maton Villa Rica, GA Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/09/19 09:02 by NSSpike.

Dan Posted from iPhone Date: 07/09/19 10:08 Re: NS Merchandise Trains With DPU? Author: dan7366 123 usually has DPU.
15T/16T have had it in the past week. Dan Date: 07/09/19 10:50 Re: NS Merchandise Trains With DPU? Author: JPB 310 (now Elkhart to Binghamton) often has DPU on account of lots of frac sand heading to the NY’s Southern Tier.
316 (Bellevue to Buffalo) had a single engine DPU pushing on the loaded auto racks this morning. Also saw Buffalo to somewhere west manifest running past the North East PA rail cam with DPU yesterday. Posted from iPhone Date: 07/09/19 12:24 Re: NS Merchandise Trains With DPU?
