Reguardless of all the BS going on right now with them...My dream is to work for CSXT. The ultimate yard I'd like to work in is csx's Rice terminal in Waycross Georgia.

Congrats, Patrick! Rice yard? Boy you need to get out more. Sorry I would have to say Cumberland, MD. Nothing like having to push a train up a hill.

I wouldn't want to work there. Dying locomotives make me sad.
CSX's big locomotive dead line is located there as well. Many locomotives go there when they are through, to be destroyed. :cry: :cry:

Last 2 trips to Cumberland ( I go once a year, and usualy manage to make it twice) there were very few dead locos left. Almost all of that work has been transfered to Huntington, or Waycross, and Selkerk. About all Cumberland dose anymore is 92 day inspectons, changouts of componts, ie- trucks, turbos, stuff like that (i dont think they do engine change outs any more). They signed a contract with GE to all the work on the AC6000's, a couple of years ago, and sence then the rebuild work has all but moved.
