Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Aug 2023
18:35 - L302 west thru Trowbridge, calling an Approach Medium for the west end. I counted 23 cars behind 5399, 404, and 6900.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Aug 2023
6900 was the first unit from this number series to have a Chessie logo applied to its nose by unknown parties. Sometime in 2015-2016 it had a wreck repair to its nose and lost its CSX logo. In 2020 someone painted a Chessie logo on the bare nose. Railroad brass spotted this right away and had it taken to the shop and was quickly painted out, but the Chessie logo still bleeds through in 2023. No CSX logo still was ever re-applied to its nose. Am surprised 6914, done much better, has lasted this long, but management has changed since then and perhaps those in charge now think it's ok.
