Today I got a message that NS westbound crude oil 67X bound for Chicago, had a CEFX leaser Bluebird AC4400CW #1033 leading. So I drove out to the YL north of Hubbard and traveled north till Route 322. Because of a 25MPH speed restriction on the track between Hubbard all the way up to Carson Yard north of Ashtabula, I was able to get this train at 4 locations. Nice to see a rare leader on NS. Reason this train took this not very busy line is do to the NS Cleveland Line between Alliance and Cleveland is cab signal territory and 1033 does not have cab signals. I'll have all videos done by Saturday. Hope you like the photos. Reason for name Bluebird, that's a nickname for CEFX blue colored lease units.
