NS 863, an RPU6 yard slug originally built as a PRR Alco RSD-12, was inbound in the third position on a westbound freight passing the Elkhart cams at 16:57 today. The NS Dash9 roster site reports this particular slug as being in storage, so obviously it has come back into service. Elkhart still uses yard slugs coupled to SD40-2s to shove cuts of cars over the hump.
