Geez, that loco gets around. I saw it three times.

-Once leading a CSX general freight around the northwest wye at Greenwich, OH (power on the point) with CSX 5118 (AC4400CW) behind it. (May 30, 2005)

-Then it reappeared again behind CSX 7629 (C40-8) with an auto rack train - it was the second unit. (June 5, 2005)

-For the last time it came back again behind CSX 7629 (C40-8) as the second unit with CSX Q268 (auto rack train). - (June 11, 2005)

Note: Last two times were at Berea, OH.

UPdate the UP 2001 is still switching in Oakland at 2:00pm PDT 4-29-06

Heads up OLYMPIC fans on the Coast line in CA and SOcal.
A friend phoned me and said that she saw the UP 2001 SITTING
in the Oakland yards as of 12:10pm PDT SAT 4-29-06.
According to radio traffic at Oakland the 2001 is LEADING this QRVDO train!!!
This was just viewed from a BART transit train.
The DRGW trace site gives a destination of Dolores CA
which means this is in the QRVDO regular coast freight.
That is all I know at this time 1226pm sat 4-29-06.
