NS Wilmington area locals

Interested in current operations of NS locals in the Wilmington area and especially on the New Castle Secondary. I hear H50, H53, H90 and some in the H40 series. Seems pretty random, tho. Any info appreciated.

You ought to hear the H94 too. That is a local with a 3 person crew that I believe originates out of Dover and goes north towards at least Townsend, DE. I work for the MDDE and sometimes we run in to them (figuatively ) at our interchange point, especially if they have to clear the main for a through freight. I am not sure if they go much further north from there. Does anyone know if there are customers in Middletown?

Try this site. Some of the info is dated, but it gives a lot of pretty good info:

Yeah, many times I caught H94 at Jello yard in Dover. And, always H93 has with 3 crew.

H94 work on Monday through Friday. Also, unless the an H94 is going north to Middletown mostly often on Tuesday and Thursday. When H94 preparing to stop Cheswold for work on propane tanker something then done head to Middletown and of course they will stop at Townsend too.

But, I don't know not sure that if there are customers in Middletown...ugh...

Also, you work for MDDE (Maryland & Delaware)? That so awesome I like from hear it.
