Folks, CSX I132 was spotted (by dtiman64) on "Heritage Units" @ 6:36 p.m. (9-1), Detroit, heading to CSX Livernois Yard!!!! KCSM "Gray" AC4400CW #4552 is the rear unit!!!! Well, is this engine expected to lead a southbound train from Livernois Yard? I'd like to catch! Could this be the afternoon Intermodal train to Illinois?

I deleted it once already, but Robert added it back, so I'll ask - why is a picture of UP 2001 from a few years ago relevant to the CSX train location updates from today?
I get the KCSM 4552 on CSX i131 going to Indiana and all, but why UP 2001?
