@CSX2665 sometimes im at the right place at the right time, other times like when I caught the NS F-Units and the executive train, i get advanced warning

[CSX2665]

@DASCO2136 advanced warning of wat??????,oh & nice horn btw

[DASCO2136]

@CSX2665 Sometimes, i might get a tip from a couple of railfan friends of mine about an interesting move coming through the Cleveland area. In the case of the NS executive train, i got a heads up notice from a friend a couple of days before they came threw. That gave me time to make sure i would have the time to be in a posistion to catch it coming through Berea

No, It said it was sold to CN. I want to find pictures of it.

[DASCO2136]

@trainmandan05 no, they just have 2 SD40T-2s. The CN unit your refering to is actually an SD40

[trainmandan05]

5391 and 5313, On there roster however it said they had 3. The 2 D&RGW's and a 3rd one which said something about CN or something like that??

[DASCO2136]

@trainmandan05 to my understanding, they only have 2--5391 and 5405 i believe.
