I was expecting Midnight Blue Amtrak P42 #100 to lead this 448 given it was leading Amtrak 48 at Elkhart a little after midnight on 9/2/21. I guess engines must have been changed out at Albany/Rensselaer. Would 448 have set-out the CTrail P40 at Springfield?Goes to Boston then down to NHV on 67/65.

Is 6701 in service? 6711 the only other outshopped rebuild?
