My understanding is that CFE leases the ol' PRR trackage from CSX, even though I believe it is dispatched by NS. The landlord (CSX) rarely makes an appearance on this railroad; in fact, NS is now making a move to utilize the old Pennsy MUCH more.
One of these trains is shown here meeting a CFE rail train at Wanatah, IN. 16E is a BRC-Clearing to Conway junker, and to relieve some pressure off the ex-NYC main through Elkhart, NS has decided to send it via Ft. Wayne-Lima-Crestline on the CFE.
The ultimate goal is to send unit oil trains this way, but I guess anything not a priority can take this route. Even the track between Tolleston and Clakre Junction-ish is set to be restored with the diamond already put back in at Tolleston from what I have heard.
Good to see some actual signs of life along the PRR.
