CSX GP60's

Unread post by David Collins »

Found a video online of a CSX GP60 working a local. This video was taken a few years ago, but does anyone know if any of these units are active, and if so, where?

One of them has been sold. I believe the other two are still owned by CSX but might be in storage now.

Post from MQT3001 about the retiring of 6897 and 6898 around May 2019:

Found these just by pulling up the GP60 wiki page at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMD_GP60
Found CSX had just 3 of these units, 6897, 6898, and 6899. Searched this site for each of those three loco numbers, and these threads come up.

Why search yourself when you can get someone else to do it?
