CFE 2131 and NS 9320 |
Description: |
While following CF&E, I happened to get lucky just west of Warsaw. Both the 04 and 01 crews were flopping trains with one another in the siding west of town. Todays rendition of CF&E 01 was a CP Corn Train bound for the IORY in Lima. Sadly, todays train had a pair of black and white Dash 9s... |

CFE 2131 |
Description: |
Yesterday evening, I got word that an rare train with an even more rare leader was going to be running east on the CF&E today. Last week, the FRA Geometry Train ran in to Fort Wayne and would be continuing east the following week. Usually NS provides the power for this train, but somehow, someway, a CN SD40-2W got tacked on the front, and ended up making it this far and would remain on the train well into Ohio. I can bet the former PRR has not seen a SD40-2W leader since NS was regularly running trains along it nearly 2 decades ago, so it was a no brainer to head up to Fort Wayne and make chase of it. When I got up there, the FRA crew members were just arriving onto the property so I had some time to get some photos of some other trains. Surprisingly, a loaded welded rail train was sitting right at the distant PL. While it isnt the best photo, its the first time Ive gotten to shoot a train (though stopped) beside this signal, and it was the final active PRR signal I had to get a shot of that remains on the CF&E side of the former PRR Fort Wayne Line. |
