SHIRE OAKS, Pa. – Norfolk Southern GE ES44AC No. 8105, the Interstate Railroad heritage unit, was damaged by a mudslide yesterday in northern West Virginia, according to company spokesman Robin Chapman. The locomotive was on a northbound coal train leaving the Loveridge Coal Mine on the railroad’s Loveridge Secondary, near Morgantown, W.Va, and is currently in Shire Oaks.
The unit suffered damage to its fuel tank, handrails, and snowplow totaling about $1,000. Chapman was unable to give an estimate on the unit’s return to service.
Last week, EMD SD70ACe No. 1071, the Central Railroad of New Jersey heritage unit, was damaged in a collision in Allentown, Pa.
