Regarding the list of the newest 59 GE rebuilds from Texas or Erie listed in the thread above, we lose 25 YN2 units, 20 YN3, 12 YN3B and 2 in YN3c paint. The two in YN3c paint will be a moot point as they will retain that scheme with its new number. 14 of the 59 units were new to me rebuilds, the other 45, I had known earlier were going for rebuild in 2024. Rebuilds marked for 2025 are now already becoming known.

CSXT 5222 (ES40DC) has received YN3c paint

Many more CM44AC/AH rebuilds are now planned. Here are the following known numbers...
CSXT 7081 ex CSXT 126...
CSXT 7300 ex CSXT 307...
CSXT 7409 ex CSXT 352...
CSXT 7569 ex CSXT 502...

What determines whether they will be rebuilt into the 70, (71, 72), 73, 74, or 75 series?
What are the differences between the series?

I don’t know the nuances of every 7xxx prefix, but one of the key differences is truck type. CSX’s CW44ACs were delivered with at least two different types of trucks, with some being a high adhesion design specifically for use on mountainous coal trains, and another type being the steerable truck intended to decrease curve rail wear. There might even be a third design in the mix. I’d have to look at some side photos to compare truck types and figure out which series is which…

I know some of either the 7300s or 7500s have the PTC for the northeast, which is different from the rest. Aces I believe its called. I'm sure there is someone with better understanding on the topic. i think some of the 7400s are using a new software as well.. I could be wrong though.
