Intermodal train 215 was spotted cresting "Erlanger Hill" south of Cincinnati today led by NS #9544 in primer. Time was around 1pm.

If you can't catch it, photos have already been posted to my site.

Didn't catch wind of that one fast enough, Glad you caught that one.
Heck after awhile, the primer and black start to get "NORMAL".!

Actually, I lied. I spotted it around 11am. I was out with my son all afternoon and was unable to post it earlier to help anyone south of my locale. Sorry...

9544 led 215 south out of Atlanta. Before getting out of town, the second unit (8894) failed. Loud knocking in the prime mover. Chief DS told train to shut down unit and continue with only 9544... Less than a mile from the yard...

Never mind, nobody's in any hurry for that stuff.
