25A to Danville
« on: April 20, 2014, 10:45:31 PM »
NS 25A went southbound on the CNO&TP Sunday evening.  The system train numbers list shows 25A as a Chicago to Danville train.  This evening it had a CN on the lead with an NS and four intermodal cars.  The only train I saw in the list that originates in Danville is NS 200.

Does the power off of 25A return north from Danville?

Normally yes.. If the NS engine was facing north, then the NS would lead 200..

If they were both facing south, or it had just one locomotive on it, they would send the power to North wye to turn the power
