CSX Railroad (CSX) 8666 - Rebuilt EMD SD50-2

Shot in the Industrial Park did not go closer than this. NS 8700 is a research based guess as it is the only unit not worn with a 0 at the end that fits this location.

SD50-2 at Moncrief Yard with lots of UP power in the background.

CSX SD40-2 8060, SD50-2 8666, and UP ES44AC 7413 pound through Fairburn on March 8, 2014.

The fourth engine on Q394-21 was built as CR 6756 SD50 in May 1984.

A C40-8W, SD40-2 and two SD50-2s are in charge of this Q394-21 train at West Yough. It is about mid-day and the sunlight is still great. Another reason to love September days. CSX 7351 is former Conrail 6177 built in February 1993. The other three engines are also former Conrail!

A trio of SD50-2s are pulling train Q296-25 east into the Connellsville CSX Yard. The conductor rides the front so that he can quickly throw switches. It is a rare occurence to find three SD50-2s pulling a train together at this point in time.

UP purged all SD50s off the roster several years ago but CSX is rebuilding their fleet and sending them offline. Note the older style class lights still intact on the nose.

Nice second unit, ex-CR still with markers!
