NS 4229 |
| Description: |
Today TJ and I decided to take some time seeing what shortline and mainline action we could come away with around East Central and Central Indiana. We decided to begin the day around the Central Indiana and Western after hearing that they had an outbound train for Anderson today. But first, we made a quick stop at Noel and found NS 55G awaiting a new crew. |

CIW 5232 |
| Description: |
The train crosses 9th and John Streets in Lapel and continues east. I received word that the CNUR would also be running a New Castle Job. So we decided to let the CIW tail off and book it to New Castle. |

About 20 minutes later then engine is all warmed up and ready to begin the day. For the first time ever I am getting to see WBCR 6 move after seeing it sit still every time I saw it at its home in Bluffton! |
