NS unit grain train with two NS engines and one UP engine just passed the Elkhart camera heading up the tracks towards Kalamazoo at 9:12 am. There aren’t many NS trains using those tracks anymore, usually it’s the stone trains. This is the first unit grain train that I have noticed go towards Kalamazoo instead of staying on the main NS tracks to the east.

Those tracks to Kalamazoo are typically used only by the Grand Elk and the local NS trains now so seeing this unit grain train heading towards the Zoo piqued my interest.

NS 4451/UP 6240/NS 7582 was the power and the train is for The Andersons in White Pigeon.

Shortly their after, BE19 the NS Elkhart local that transfers to the Elk ran up the line with NS 886 (slug) and NS 6196 running LHF with:

3 - boxcars
4 - 2-bay CHs
