CSX 260 is in fresh new paint.

Add 6006 also.

Thanks for the reports of 8230, 6006 and 260!

Looks like the 366 (chessie unit) is going to the Waycross Heavy Repair for a complete rebuild, fire pretty much destroyed the PM, Alternator, Traction motors, etc. Coming south on Q401 to Hamlet, then on 491 to Waycross.

Report on another group:
3375 went to GE-Ft. Worth and it & 3411 went to San Antonio for emission testing. 3375 has come back to Ft. Worth. Also a photo of 3412, 3413 at the GE plant, and it stated none of the new order has been delivered to CSX as of yet.

Looks like there's new 4300's, here's 4320 ahead of 4388:

Oh, fun!

Not sure what this is. We're thinking the photographer is confused between 4320 and 4230...4230 is in fact the 8858.

Still waiting on the ex-NS "Hornet" units, which apparently are still outside the shop but not yet shopped. Those were supposed to go before the 4300s we already know of up in the 80s.

3412,13,14,15 out for a stroll:

I guess we have the same "source" sometimes! I also saw 2 units arrived from Erie recently, 3392, 3394

Here is an updated version of a list I posted a long time ago. Here's our rare YN2 paint list...

If you hear or see one of these units, they're next-to-last in their type for remaining in YN2.

The numerical listing contains all of the EMDs left in YN2, with less than 5 remaining in each class except for SD40-2s, which has at most, 15 left still running in YN2. The B40-8s and B20-8s are on the list because they're on the road to retirement in the near future. SD40-2s known to be in Boise or the deadline are notated as such.

4372 is enroute back to CSX from Boise. This one is confirmed to be the former 8909, the first "hornet" to go. This also confirms the long-lived rumor that these would go into the 4372-4383 series.

We have the final list of Hornet rebuilds. This will end the "hornet" paint total, as they'll all be gone. We'll keep that sorta data for the main update coming early next week. For now, here's the conversions list.

4372 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8909
4373 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8903
4374 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8902
4375 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8904
4376 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8901
4377 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8906
4378 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8900
4379 SD40-3 Rebuilt 8911
