NS Heritage Unit Location Updates

[TrainWatcher]

It was never tied down in Toledo...I shot it in Monroe so the info on it being tied down was wrong.

I believe they did a crew change at Wagon Works. MDH has a photo of a CN train passing the NS Heritage with a stored BNSF train at Wagon Works.

When that post was made about it being "tied down", it was already approaching Wyandotte and Rouge.

The 8114 is on the north end of track #2 at Rouge yard.

I will confirm that its true the CR painted 8098 blew a crankshaft and is headed, DIT, to Roanoke, VA for heavy repairs. Don't know anything else beyond that though for right now.

Some NS train was just assigned to go pick up the NS 8114 at YD at 1619. Does this mean they are heading to US steel to get a coal drag?

The coal drag if empty would be in Rouge Yard,YD is on the North end of Rouge Yard just South of the Conrail Bridge.

NS 8114 is probably in Toledo by now. It went through on a NS 415, second unit out. Consist: NS ES44AC, NS 8114, BNSF SD70MAC, BNSF SD70MAC. It went through Wyandotte at about 8:05 PM 5-8-12. Here is a picture (not great)
