NS 8103 (N&W) Leads Manifest West & Meets NS 9970 West | Grant St. Railroad Crossing, Peru, IN

Tuesday, June 23, 2026 I would then head to this crossing as I heard that NS 121 would like to depart Peru. I set up here once I saw him coming my way. A few minutes later, NS 121 slowly heads west while stopping with the NS Norfolk and Western heritage unit ES44AC and an NS AC44C6M. 121 was told to wait for 251 to leave and he eventually passed by with a single NS C44-9W at the Grant Street railroad crossing in Peru on the Huntington District. This crossing has a pair of NS early 2000s gated signal that would have their track signs replaced, the GS type 1 or 2 E-Bell was replaced with a GS type 3 E-Bell, and the right signal also had its diagonally striped gate with NEG incandescents replaced with a vertically striped one with RECO incandescents.
