A couple of “new” NS trains have showed up on the Ft Wayne - Chicago NKP line. Train 150 seems to be a daily manifest train. Rumor has it that it is a Columbus, Oh - Chicago train. Any truth to those rumors? Where does it terminate in Chicago?
Yesterday I saw a train 110. I have no clue about this one. Any help is appreciated.

110 is a Chattanooga to Clearing train, about 2 weeks old.
150 is a Chattanooga to Bensenville train, about 2 months old.
Don:
Are both permanently routed on the NKP line to Chicago?
Also, just heard a 308 a couple of minutes ago. That used to be a Clearing to Bellevue train back 10 years ago, but seemed to have disappeared. Today, it returned. Is that a permanent train also?
The old Nickle Plate just keeps adding trains. What a great line it seems to be (at least from my view) to complement the Conrail line (Elkhart to Chicago).
