From a Facebook group, that unit should be CSXT 1013, which they classify as an 'MP6'.

Thanks much. Thats definitely what I saw. Appears that's a loco that's used for humping, and that train was enroute to Avon IN, so maybe it'll be used on the hump there, if it did indeed reopen.

14:11 EDT:

Q326clear east end Wells, advancing ahead so as to clear the west end of the siding, so D802 can get behind them. They are 10,000 feet and 14,000 tons.

Meanwhile, D700 east at Vriesland with a decent Holland pickup.

And Y121 heading for the Fremont Sub, by the west leg of the wye right now.
