Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
New plan for SD70ACs now rebuilding will include ALL flared SD70s 4701-4830 except 4705 and 4810 which are expected to be included as well as both units are currently active. this of course excludes 4716, and 4759 which were retired years ago. so the EMD rebuilds keep on a coming.

CN wiki
so I just discovered the Dash 8 page on the wiki and love it. however, one correction. CN 2133 was first sold to chicago heights to be scrapped and NWIX bought it from there. the unit resides in Ohio right now with the 2125

Re: Locomotive News
CN has however begun to pick up former BNSF Dash 9s as well with CN 1887 as ex-BNSF 4566 and CN 1844 as ex-BNSF 4484 so far. The CN 1887 at least is classified by CN as an "EF-644bd"

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
CSXT 7380 an ACEs equipped rebuild should be added to the roster if it hasn't been already. sounds like the rebuilds coming out of Erie will be about half and half ACEs equipped units for the Northeast.

Re: SD60’s stored in Saginaw
their former CITX 6017 and 6020. both are owned by PRLX now. odds are they wont be scrapped. PRLX had already resold a small number of these and I recall crews saying both of these units were good runners so i'm sure they'll be resold as well eventually.

Re: Norfolk Southern returning SD70M-2's to service
just read the other day supposedly NS is going to do an AC upgrade to the M-2s in the near future. guess we'll see if that holds out to be true.

Re: Norfolk Southern returning SD70M-2's to service
aside from the cab, are the M-2s decent running reliable units? seems like BNSF, Cn and NS would get with EMD/Progress and work through a cab replacment program of some sort to either fix the cabs or replace them entirely with the newer isolated cab that is better for the crew ( oh thats right, that...
