Re: CSX Heritage Units that Ran In Michigan
When will the Ludington Northern and Manistee North Eastern heritage locomotives be traveling through Michigan?

Re: CSX Heritage Units that Ran In Michigan
If your keeping a running tab on CSX Heritage through Michigan. You should add 1982 that ran on June 4 on 302 and June 5 on 303.

Re: CSX Heritage Units that Ran In Michigan
Ludington Northern never became part of the CSX, so they wouldn't do a unit for them. Plus #16 is still around so it can be the heritage unit all on its own.
As for the M&NE. It was part of the CSX family so it is possible, but highly unlikely you will ever see a heritage unit in this scheme.

I believe the M&NE locomotives wore the same paint scheme as Pere Marquette. If M&NE had a passenger locomotive to use as a model the heritage unit would look like CSX 1898.

CSX also hasn't operated any ex M&NE trackage outside of a tiny portion in Manistee for the better part of 45 years.

Re: CSX Heritage Units that Ran In Michigan
If you know the time these trains are coming and going then you should be able to catch them on the Porter Junction - Chesterton, IN VR camera. The camera is across the tracks from the two different mainlines that come into Michigan from Porter, IN. I caught a pretty long CSX freight train coming from Michigan into Indiana this morning while watching. This camera catches four different railroads, it has Amtrak, BNSF, CSX and Norfolk Southern trains.
