Train 202 is approaching Knoxville at 9:30 PM w/ lead unit NS 7106. I have not seen this train in Knox. for a while. I'm told when it runs thru here, it's to avoid Atlanta. Anybody know where it comes from and where it's going? It's great to see double stacks on the West End!
NS 202 is a Memphis Tn to Atlanta GA intermodal. No need for it to avoid Atlanta as that is where it ends. Not sure why it is running Knoxville.
The first 202 ran thru Knox. last December. They go east to Bristol and on to the Virginia Div. Before 202, NS ran a 24J thru here a few times last year. The last scheduled intermodal trains that ran thru Knox via Chatt and Bristol were 22T/23T several years ago.
