It was on line and looked good going west, I guess they are running it to Buffalo or something so when it gets to Wilard, OH they will send it to Huntington to go north to NJ! I love the CSX route planning.
JJ-
actually, it has been confirmed as being on-line..
so, no need for nausea.

Technically, the engine shouldn't have been online if it's being shipped at cost.
However, anything is possible...
The best way to prevent this kind of thing from happening is to ship them dead and drained... tagged unservicable... and with the batteries disconnected!
If an engine is full of water and has good batteries... you just never know what might happen!
I'm sure that Kingfish can advise whether the unit was D&D or not.
