CN reactivates two IC Blue Devils
CN has reportedly brought two IC Blue Devil units (2456 and 2466) out of storage and back into mainline service, We saw 2466 (which was online) go through the state a few days ago on an intermodal train, but 2456 was spotted 5 hours ago in Centralia, Illinois bound for Kirk Yard in gary and is also online.

Re: CN reactivates two IC Blue Devils
Looks like CN has reactivated some Dash 8's for surge fleet service.
"Ex-Chicago North Western C40-8 No. 2131 led Chicago-Toronto train 148 on Sunday, June 5, providing the first look at a standard-cab Dash 8 on the mainline in well over a year."
Also reactivated are BC Rail 4609 and Illinois Central 2466 (as previously posted).
