Currently PA #190 is sitting in Elkhart, IN yard on NS!!!!

NOTHING REPOTED UPDATE?: OK, nothing reported as of May 14th for this PA! Must still be in Elkhart, IN!!!! It will not go through Fostoria, OH since it is on the "Water Level" route! It would be nice if it parked at Toledo AMTK for photos of it on display!!!! :wink:
