Heartland locomotive?
Posted by MP173 on Monday, April 27, 2015 2:34 PM

A friend asked me about a set of locomotives on the WB Capital Limited April 23rd which had "Heartland Express" or "Heartland Limited" on the locomotives.

I cannot answer his question...does anyone know what these locomotives are?

How about "Heartland Flyer". Okie City to Fort Worth?

Does that train have specifically branded locomotives?

There were two such locomotives on the WB Capital (29) in Indiana.

That is what I wondered too, but we couldnt find any photos.

I think the biodiesel Dash 8-P32BWHs have lost their decals, and have been without them for a couple years. I think what he is talking about is the Big Game Train P42DC.
