South Shore Geep Leading a Powder River Coal Empty

With the oddly supplied BNSF GE Duo not being PTC Qualified on NICTD tracks, the 2003 was called up out of the bullpen to lead an empty NORX train under the wires back to the BRC where the UP could fetch the train.

Great night catches and awesome video

[@ChadsRailfanExperience]

Thank you very much!

That's a unique catch! Always loved seeing the Geeps leading coal trains on the shore but quite rarae to see one pulling class one power . Also when did BNSF take the NIPSCO contract?

[@ChadsRailfanExperience]

They didn't, BNSF shipped a bunch of units to the UP for horsepower hours

​@@ChadsRailfanExperienceahh. Makes sense now.
