How can we track where these units will be on a day-to-day basis?

    Does NS have a tracking tool which shows where locomotives are? Or do we need to rely on the trusty railfan network? With 19 of these on the rails eventually, and NS's far-flung network, it's going to be fun to try to get photos of them.

    When I lived in Modesto, I had a personal goal to get photos of all 25 of the SP SD70M's. I did it, got the last one a few weeks before we moved to Ohio :). I see another challenge here, trying to get all of the NS heritage units :)

    Probably the same way people track the UP units. Via a yahoo group where spotters report locations and ujnnamed sources report what the computers say.

    The Conrailer is headed to Lambert's Point then to Portsmouth probably via the Pokey.

    Thats what NS should do. Hopefully they all have the standard horn for the railroad they represent.
