Description:  This GP40-2 has brand new paint and is one of seven engines on train Q353-19. Former CSX 6262 and was built as WM 4363 in 1979. Works with CSX 2340. I think it is very surprising that engines were still being built for WM at that late stage, well into ownership by Chessie System.

FURX 5563, CSX 8049, CSX 7602
Title:  FURX 5563, CSX 8049, CSX 7602
Description:  Things sure have been strange on the Keystone Sub lately. Here we have a GP38-2 leaser taking autorack train Q277-19 out of Conenellsville on a rainy day. There were very few locomotives choices available in the yard, and the other two engines on this train are not even facing the correct way to be able to lead. Stranger yet is this was a former NS engine that has only had the logos removed. Originally built as NW 4137 GP38AC (high hood) in June 1971.
