Can someone help me with a train symbol on a southbound intermodal train yesterday 8-17-2011.  I photographed it at Tateville Kentucky yesterday about 16:45 EST.  It was running not far behind the 215 and was powered by NS 8931 and NS 9652.  Thanks, John

That time of day, and running behind the 215, I would venture that would have been the 223. Just an educated guess, but if it was a fairly long train, that would have to be it. 229 usually runs well ahead of 215, and is always a lot shorter..

Emmett, Thanks for the info.  You are probably right on the train number.  From what I remember it was about the same length as the 215.  I'm going to put some videos up on my Youtube page tomorrow and when I do I may post a link to it here.  If you don't mind taking a look at it maybe you'd have a better idea from that if it was indeed the 223 or not.
