OK, what are the plans for this CSX Geometry Train? pudgy reported that the loco (CSX GP40WH-2 #9969) will go for its "Quarterly Inspection!" Will this happen? Or will this train continue east? I have never caught this engine, but have seen CSX "Geometry Trains" before!

This is just a question, I heard W003 will be stored in Wyoming for the winter (minus 9969 of course), does anyone know if this is true or not?
