A few clips from the past couple days of freight trains along the St. Louis District. NS 30L is former NS 125, heading from Kansas City, MO to Louisville, KY.
how often do HU's come through STL (kirkwood/county area)? i go hunting but never found one, i base location on the heritage units app, which got me UP1943, an SI unit. please help Edit: what line is that? if its an NS line then where?
They come through on a occasional basis I’d say, so like not very often. The NS line here in the video is the St. Louis District and I recorded at a road slightly east of St. Peters. Honestly, if you have Facebook I strongly encourage you to join various railfan heads up groups for the STL region. That’s my main way for finding all sorts of HUs and SI locos.
