Heads Up:

A new VIA Rail trainset is currently on the Union Pacific (SFLCH) headed to Chicago. UP 5275 solo leader. Cedar Rapids, IA at 06:00 EDT.

The last time it ran, http://railroadfan.com/phpbb/viewtopic. ... 42#p468742, 09/28, the symbol once on CN was P69891. In Battle Creek, they swapped the solo UP unit for a CN locomotive.
VIA train set is in Chicago still. Is on the Leighton Sub as of 13:00

Passing MP 22.5 at 5:15 pm. A big cut of NCIX new looking jumbo hoppers on the head end, something we don't see often on the Holly, what is probably a long cut of empty coil cars behind them (can't see in the ditch from my house, then autoracks. All four locomotives working. The UP had graffiti on its long hood, something I have not seen on a locomotive before.
