Levin's E8A's westbound on the NS Pittsburgh Line at MP: PT 124 with 3 coaches heading to Chicago for the National Train Day with PRR 5711 leading, 5809 trailing, Little Juanita Rapids, Warrior Ridge, and Pennsylvania 120

It's not my video, but I thought people might enjoy it.

When are these things coming back again? It wouldn't happen to be Saturday, would it?

Probably not since Saturday is National Train Day.

Hopefully I can catch these at Chicago Union Station when I come in off the Wolverine tomorrow. I bet they will lready be sitting underneath though where the lighting stinks instead of the coach shops tracks.  ::)

They were not in either the intermodal yards on the way into Chicago on the NS, in the coach yard, or on the receiving tracks on the south side as we pulled in.  :'( The only thing of interest was an Indiana Harbor Belt locomotive. No idea where the stashed them prior to Saturday.

I just found this video done by the same guy that caught the NS Derby Special.  He has some luck! (or skill)
