    Don't know much about it, I was hoping for some Hertiage Units from CSX. I think they are repainting them,wouldn't take much to repaint in Hertiage.

    CSX Traded 12 SD80MAC's to NS for 12 SD40-2's. CSX has been rebuilding their SD40-2's including with new safety cabs. I suppose the ex-NS units could go straight to work. I think they've been rebuilding the SD40-2's that have come in for heavy repair. There is a lengthy deadline of these in Huntington as it is, so it might be a while before these get rebuilt.

    I love the shot -- it's as if the NS units are beasts aimlessly grazing in a fenced in pasture. :)

    I'm still a bit confused as to where in the forum we post pictures to be considered for those in the RFP of TW. I couldn't find co_riff's post with this picture posted elsewhere. My apologies; I'm kinda slow on the uptake. :eek:hboy: Thank you everyone.

    Co_riff and Will, thanks for keeping this going. Hardcoaler, you can publish photos anywhere on the site and they can be considered for photos of the week. Let's see some.
