Re: NS 2021 Updates
NS B19 west at Dearborn Amtrak Station at 07:20, no visual but a unique sounding horn.
Re: NS 2021 Updates
6170 and 6105 plus a short train this morning. 6170 has been on the job for quite a while, has an RS3L I believe.

Re: NS 2021 Updates
6170 is former N&W and the RS3L is a conrail horn, not the correct horn for the engine but I’ll take a Leslie any day of week

Re: NS 2021 Updates
Yes it’s a former N&W unit with a Conrail horn. 6105 is also former N&W but has a southern horn. The horns on engines get swapped out and nobody cares what gets put on as long as it works.David Collins wrote: ↑Sat Sep 11, 2021 10:13 am

Edited to reflect 6170 having the Conrail style horn. Turns out the darn thing never leads when I see it.
