| Description: |
Following the action over at East Wayne, we heard CFE 03 get permission into the Piqua Yard limits. We hurried over to Mike Tower, and sure enough, CFE 03 came slowly rolling by. What was not expected, however, was the Tunnel Motor was leading todays train! |

CFE 3316 |
| Description: |
The sun was beginning to set, and the traffic was less than busy, so I decided it was time to think about heading home. In order to get home, I usually take OH 309 to US 30, which takes me right beside CFEs Cole Street Yard. I happened to find the Tunnel Motor sitting all by itself just west of the overpass. Not sure why its smoking this much oil. I dont think engines are supposed to do that. |

CFE 3316 |
| Description: |
We worked west on US 24, assuming we would run into the train around Idaville. We decided to stop there just in case, and it was a good thing we did, as we could hear the train plain as day coming into town. The HL3 crew brings the Logansport turn job east through Idaville, with both motors making some nice EMD noises. |

We grabbed one final shot of HL3 crossing the Eel River Bridge in Logansport before calling our day of trains to a rest. We went down to Science Project Brewing for some supper, then it was time to bid our goodbyes to one another and head our separate ways toward home. The day started our fairly bland, but it sure ended on a high note! |

IORY 4070 |
| Description: |
After picking up a new SD Card and missing several NS trains, I decided to go back to Delta because the Delta Turn Power was parked by NorthStar, and todays power featured an IORY Tunnel Motor and an IORY SD50. IORY 4070 doesnt have much longer for this world, so it was worth making the drive back. |

| Description: |
And just like that the chase southbound portion of the chase was over, and we prepped to shoot the northbound. The same power from yesterdays LSL (minus the OHCR 4023 of course) is the power for the northbound. Not sure why they would drop the OHCR 4023 considering it was the last unit in the consist facing north yesterday. Our interest in the train had dropped significantly, but we still planned to shoot it some. The LSL flops trains with the WCH-B crew at Tremont. |

WE 5391 |
| Description: |
WE 5391 trails 3rd on a light engine movement heading into Poneto. This totally caught me off guard! And the weird thing was was that the engines were like in a pattern. The pattern was NS, Conrail, WLE (Rio Grande), WLE (Rio Grande), Conrail, and NS. If I had known something this special was coming I would have probably got more and better photos than just this one WLE unit. |

WE 5411 |
| Description: |
The sun was essentially directly over the tracks at this time, so I wanted to make sure that I shot the westbound in a location where the tracks werent directly east/west. With Elton Road closed, I had to drive about 2 miles further north to Hackett Road where the tracks angle more north than run west. I drove pretty leisurely and wasnt aware that the train was directly behind me the entire time. I was quite surprised when I heard the sharp K5LLA down at the next crossing down, and was even more surprised to see the other 2 tunnel motors hosted on the roster leading the train. While I would have rather seen the DRGW lead, the UP one is pretty cool nonetheless. WE 237 was the symbol, and this train was basically a counterpart of the inbound train (heading to Carey) but this one had no stone cars. |

WE 5412 |
| Description: |
I had heard from the Wheeling Dispatcher talking to a track worker that he had to get a train in and a train out on the west side of the yard. I headed over there and sure enough there was a westbound poised to go out. No sign of an eastbound however. The shadows were quite long still, and shooting it coming into the yard would have put the train under complete shadow. So I decided to go up to Elton Road which I knew had no obstructions in the way. Unfortunately, the road was closed and a Wheeling crew was working on replacing the crossing (which I assume was the MOW dude the dispatcher was talking with). I didnt want to get too far away from Brewster just in case the Corman popped into town, so I decided I had to stick it out and grab it coming into the yard. I waited and waited and waited and I almost gave up on it, until finally I heard a Wheeling defect detector go off. I checked a timetable to make sure it wasnt coming from the other direction, and thankfully MP numbers did match up and it was my eastbound. Sure enough, I heard a horn moments later. I got set up and sure enough minutes later WE 768 from Carey came around the corner. And to my utter shock, a DRGW Tunnel Motor was on the front! I thought I had heard dispatch talking with WE 5412 earlier and I was correct. And not only that, but the train took long enough that most of the shadows had come off the rails so the unit was in perfect morning sunshine. Im very relieved I decided to stick it out! |

WE 5413 |
| Description: |
Im still in awe that these units have been basically untouched since they were retired from the DRGW. Both tunnel motors spent some time on NS back between 2008 and 2010, and I had multiple opportunities to see both of them, especially 5412 (at the time 5391), but never shot either of them more than once, which ironically was on the same day just like today. Now I have seen both of them once again in the same day 14 years later. Some of my favorite units in the Midwest for sure. Glad I got to see this one leading, however, back in March. |
