Description:  The second engine on Q277-29, an EMD SD40-2 in new paint that has an interesting history. Built as KCS 605 SD40 in November 1966.

Here you can see that along with a repainting, it has had an air conditioning unit added to the roof.

Title:  CN 5699
Description:  EMD SD75I on ethanol train K630-30. This engine was leading the train until it got to Connellsville, where unfortunately CSX decided to add two helpers onto the front of the train, instead of the back, to save time. This train was really moving good with four engines working and it took some fast camera work to even get a roster shot.

CSX 3038
Title:  CSX 3038
Description:  A new GE ES44AC-H is leading on autorack train Q261-01. This new paint scheme at first was unique to these models, but now is fair game to be applied to pretty much any locomotive in the CSX lineup. I'm sure it will take CSX 5-10 years to get them all done. And by then they will have come up with a new paint scheme again.
