Labor Day Mon September 4th, 2017 the NS Cleveland Line got a real treat besides the new NS DC to AC conversion unit AC44C^M #4059 & NS Lackawanna Heritage SD70ACe #1074, but a freshly painted Carload Express MP15AC switcher #1559 trailing 3rd. So all units were very interesting to catch. They passed through Rootstown Ohio at 2:44PM.

That Carload Express switcher looks cool. I can't place the colors but I've seen them before. Thanks for posting.

O.K. now I remember where I saw those colors, thank you!

Greg, did you get any photos by chance?
You've been finding some interesting diesel line ups the last couple of days! I wish I had your knowledge of engine types, road names, colors, etc., that's pretty amazing too. Thanks for another round of nice pics!

Yes, they look very similar to the ones you posted. I, like lots of folks, am trying to get pictures of all NS Heritage engines. Still have several to get.

Same as the SWP and DCR. DCR has 6 MP15s.
Just want to mention that in Elizabeth, NJ (this morning), there was a Wisconsin Southern switcher (probably an MP15DC) in a consist with a CSX SD40-2 & NS 1703 (SD45-2/SD40-2)
