Yeah, ICE 6212 went westbound yesterday to Avon on symbol X092, which came from Newcastle. I foamed it at Greenwich.

Where does this train originate and terminate? I assume it goes through Marion?

Avon Yard to Toledo via the Big Four to Ridgeway, then north. Doesn't go through Marion.

Don't count on it leading out. SOP at Stanley is power goes in the 'back door with a twist', meaning you turn the power on your way into the house. Saves the fuel pad there from changing ends on every set of power that comes in (as Stanley is a stub ended yard).

Since they've been sending DME/ICE units up to Detroit through Toledo for return to CP I'd guess it'll more likely go up there tonight than bounce back on Q219 but who knows...

Indeed have spotted ICE/DME units on 25t lately. Always trailing, however, so far.
