Define 'recently'? GPS on it shows it in Huntington as 'stored' until 3-11 when it started going through the process of being put back in service. Transferred to Russell, KY and then put in service on the Q634-22, then Q378, and then on Q626.
CSX SD60 8719,8720 and SD60M all went to Peaker Service back in October, I believe for major contract work, delivered by D708 on the same day. SD60 8720 and SD60M 8782 were picked up by D70830 at Peaker on 1-30-14. SD60 8719 was picked up by D70810 on 3-10-14.

Looks like it needs to go back. Already showing as "Shutting down, reason unknown" on its first trip out of Russell, KY.

Photo?
Found a pic of CSXT 8782 repainted into YN3B, so you can mark this as confirmed repaint to YN3B.

That doesn't look like an SD60M!

We did decide to count that repaint without a photo because of the knowledge it was due for paint and the detailed report given.

Only 101 EMDs left in YN2.

Cool! Upload them when you can...

Down to 100 CSX YN2 EMDs...about 2% of the roster, and going fast. Shoot 'em now, while you still can.

I dunno. You're the one with the connections, and telling us who is right and wrong on what we're seeing. So, you tell me.

The 677 is no longer on the CSX UMLER roster. No longer are there any CW60ACs, they have all been downgraded, and rumor has it the CSXT 8888 is next in line for the torch.

The first two are UMLER facts, the last is a Facebook rumor.

The derating of locomotives 603-699 (minus retired 677) and 5000-5016 began last fall to either CW46AC, or, CW46AH in the case of those upgraded with the high tractive effort package. As of March 28, 607 and 655 had not yet been downgraded, but may be done now. 603-606, 608-654, 657-659, 661-666, 672-673, 699 & 5015 are classed CW46AC, the others CW44AH. A few of these were mis stenciled as CW60AH, when done.

CSX EMD GP38-2 #2762 has been reprinted into YN3b from YN2...got it third out this afternoon on southbound D741 (Local ... Cleveland, OH - Clark Ave. Yard to Lester, OH turn). Wasn't able to get a pic as it surprised me.

ALSO...CSX EMD GP38-2 #2548 has been painted in YN3b for quite some time now. Here is a link to a video of it: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XH7ilEkE0Ig

Alex, here's a new addition. CSXT 3099, isn't the "Spirit of West Springfield" anymore, it's now the CSX "Safety Train" locomotive. Even has it's own new decals...

Apparently CSX 4823 is in YN3B now, it's an SD80. I have no idea how to post a picture here, but I spotted it in Huntington in the not-entirely-deadline. This might be old news but I saw it so I report it. :)
