On the Indiana Toll Road today at Gary I spotted a WB CSX with 2 UP engines and a series of white refer cars, ARMN series I think.
Didnt get a look at the entire train, as the train was WB and I was EB, but about 20 of the cars were identical.
Could this have been the Washington - NY Produce Express returning empty? Whatever it was, it was a fine looking train.

Yep, that was Q091, the westbound emptys.
Anybody know what the UP symbol for this train is? I was thinking originally MSKNP but that wouldn’t make sense. Also, I’m thinking Wednesday night accross northern Illinois?

On the UP, that train is the ZSKWAP. It actually moves faster than its eastbound counterpart, because it has no tons-per-operative-brake restrictions.
Only two units, Ed? Sounds like someone’s “borrowing” some of our stuff, because we delivered this train to them with three.

Yes, there were only two units. Better call Jacksonville on this.

When UP junk breaks down it has to go to the shop.
