I have a very nice shot of two UP engines working at Fort Drum on the CSX Montreal Secondary last week, and they were headed north from there. I’d be interested in seeing the whole memo - probably does have to do with UP engines only. This is how rumors get started! Next we’ll see it quoted in the trade press as an indication of the upcoming merger…
