Appearently, about two weeks ago, the 110 went boom on a run it was on. I believe it's turbo went up. Oops! The engine is now at Progress Rail or in-transit to Progress Rail in Mayfield, KY. Looks like three engines will get rebuilt instead of two off the bat.

Indeed 110 is the 3rd unit to get sent south, this is the first picture I have seen with the units in transit. Hopefully they are spotted more easily on the way back to Chicago.
