Meanwhile, 5480 is the latest new YN3c repaint. 4580 has also been repainted YN3c and was the last of the 4500 series in the 4525-4589 group to be rebuilt.
Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
I was told recently that the early -3 program was partially government (grant) funded. The new cabs were a fruit of that added funding and without it, CSX is forgoing the square cabs on the current -3 rebuilds. Again, this is what I was told in passing so it may not be accurate.David Collins wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 10:04 pmI assume these units GP40-3 tech that the squarecab units were given, but without the squarecab?
Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
4711,4515,4717,4729,4752,4764,4565 are the latest seven rebuild units with YN3c paint from Huntington. This now makes 35 rebuilds with YN3c paint in the 4700 series. 785 is another new one from wreck repair but not sure who painted it.

What’s this I’m hearing about a Dash 8 and two Dash 9’s exiting storage?

CSX 9025 (one of the reactivated dash 9s) is leading M502 towards Chicago. The other 2 locomotives reactivated are 9045 and 7868.

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
Per a post on Facebook, it appears CSX has retired and sold all of the remaining MP15 variants, as well as what appeared to be most of the remaining RDMTs and some of the MATEs as well.
