Hi Group-

I see on the heritage units website that the NS 8102 Pennsylvania unit was reported in Oregon, IL on 2/23/14 at 8:50 pm. It is not the lead unit, but that is fine. My Dad and I have both wanted to see it. On the heritage units site it is destined for Dilworth. Just curious if anyone has any further info on it. Updated location, is it going Wayzata/Morris sub or Staples sub, etc.

Thanks!
Eric

My guess would be the Staples Sub. Was told to listen for BNSF 9530 as that is the reported leader. Also of note is the Nickel Plate is trailing on an oil empty, could be in MN by now, was in WI last night, and the Virginian is tied down in IL leading.

Looks like the Pennsylvania is at the Mississippi Jct in the cities. Should be heading into Northtown soon.

Well, despite it moving through at night time, it was still fun to see. The kids had a blast venturing out to see it. My Dad and I enjoyed the train talk. Good memories were made for all of us.

At least we've been able to see it. Can't quite check it off the bucketlist since we weren't able to get a shot of it. Maybe next time

Nice video Jake! Tried one, but it was too dark where we were at.
