As you might have heard, earlier this year IC bought ex-BN E9A's 9901 and
9904.  These locomotives are being renumbered IC 100 and 101, and are
being repainted in IC's executive colors.

Although I've received few details, I understand that 100 has already been
repainted and is now testing on intermodal trains between Chicago and New
Orleans.  Does anyone have a schedule of which trains 100 will be testing
on, or has anyone actually seen this locomotive.  Also, when will 101 be
released from the shops?

Any info would be welcome.
