Unfortunately there are still quite a few engineers north and even more south that have not been qualified on the HSPS yet so they can only be allowed on a limited amount of trains.

2001 was at canton junction this morning around 9:15-9:30 pushing an inbound train lead by a rotem. There's a definite noise difference. The HSPs are quieter for sure.

Looked like it was going out on 259 to Reading early this morning. Based on the rumble I'd say it started on 200 this morning.
For tracking purposes, for the moment it's on an all-flat set with 1633 as the cab.

Wondering if I'll see the Western Route double-tracking finished before I retire...

2001 fell ill this morning in Providence on #804, and led to the destruction of the morning PVD rush hour service...was towed back to, and arrived at SHSY around 1015am

2001 was still at SHSY this afternoon sitting in front of (not coupled) the 011 on S&I 2. 2002 was added to a train, dunno where she ended up

Not sure if 2004 is in service, but judging on the posts regarding 2001/2001, a HSP-46 was leading the deadhead that turns as Lowell 304 this morning, as viewed from Anderson RTC at 5:55AM
