The UP unit Western Pacific 1983 was at Proviso Yard today. It was facing east at the Manheim Road overpass. Nice looking unit.

If it was at Proviso, it wasn’t on a Q090. Those engines run through from origin (California, usually) to destination.
The 1983 came in on a manifest from Kansas City. It’s not scheduled out yet, but you can bet that it will go either west, north, or south from Proviso–not (too far) east, and almost certainly not on a train for somebody else’s railroad.

That’s it! UP and CSX must be merging tomorrow. I saw a rumor on the internet! How could that be wrong?
