Luckily, the heritage unit trails. At first, I was a little disappointed that the Penn Central heritage unit (NS 1073) was third out on this loaded grain train. Not long after this shot was taken, however, the train struck a semi in the small town of Mt. Carmel, IL. NS 8000 (NS' first ES44AC) was a little banged up in the accident, though it did continue on into Indiana.
