4541 has been released from Huntington in YN3c & DPU Capable

4543 is the most recent from Huntington in YN3c per photos taken at the Huntington shop area on Sunday. Supposedly, 4559, the last YN2 in this number series is as well. It has been at Huntington for several years for rebuild, and I use that term loosely, but was known to be in Richmond Virginia last Friday. Have not yet come across a picture of recently reported 451 yet. Also, in the last few minutes was sent a great picture of 407 in fresh YN3c on a bright sun full day on the lead of a freight or grain train at Big Sandy Jct. This unit had been at Huntington for fire damage repair and was a former YN3b unit. 407 evidently was released just prior to 4543.

Released the same time with 4541. Have a picture of 4541 & 4571 paired together back to back at Russell last weekend. 15 of them in YN3c have been released just since early September. Five others in plain YN3 were completed, just before the first YN3c came out of Huntington. Officially confirmed by photo 4559 was indeed painted YN3c which leaves no more 4500s remaining in YN2 paint.

how is the YN3c paint any different from the YN3b paint?

YN3c has removed the brackets "[ ]" from the logo AND added the csx web address underneath the X on the long hood

Following a derailment in Avon, IN; CSXT 8462 & 8487 are out of service. Per Loconotes; 8462 front bogey was torn off and 8487's frame appears to be bent

No worries

Just caught a fresh new YN3c repaint from Waycross, 435, ex YN2 going over the Cordele Ga. webcam at 16:29-57 on 1-21-22

CSXT 7914 is out of storage

Can someone confirm this?

The only proof I have at the moment is that 4500 is nowhere to be found around the Huntington, WV shops, which is where it was stored.
