> I'm somewhat confused. Is this a secret and going to cause someone trouble if it gets out? I doubt seriously if the NS felt they could move her without people finding out. I understand the danger of moving her or ANY TRAIN for that matter but that's a daily occurrence on all railroads. Railroad property is PRIVATE so, yes, do not trespass, but watching trains is as American as apple pie. Everyone needs to respect their property and use common sense. I know that's hard to do on many peoples "to do list".

I do not want any of this information from anyone if it will get anyone in trouble with NS. I do plan on sharing it with railfans that have asked for this information especially after viewing this segment on WSLS 10 News in Roanoke, VA.
