For the GEXR detail freaks: Yes, that’s RLK 2210 – re-numbered to avoid confusion with LLPX 2210 in later years.
AWESOME! Wish I had seen these!
Very Nice! I only managed to catch these runs a couple of times, but am glad I did. London just isn’t the same without EMD
This is fun! More of these please!
Also equally cool as CSX didn’t take a lot of the ACe’s making them a rare catch on a good day.
thanks Joe. How many did csx order in total? i probably shot 20 different units as they sometimes changed daily.
funny enough I found a pair of these in Cordele GA and guess which unit is leading ?????????
yup this one!!!!
Yeah only 20 in total, 4831-4850. I have only ever seen one in my travels on CSX roads.
Note: I’m told CSXT 4839 is retired now, MG failure.
This was a great time along the ol’ Guelph Sub., and a great shot, Steve. But 12 years ago already? Wow!!!
Thanks Arnie – it was, and I was just lucky to be there for it. Little did I know how lucky i truly was to have it in my backyard..
I looked back at my records and I managed to shoot about 12 to 14 CSX SD70ACe’s in total, including the now retired 4839
Interesting about the 4839. Lucky for me that was the leader in the only train I followed for much distance on the GEXR…as posted a long time back passing Kitchener station. I’ve not a decent record of how many ACe’s I saw along the line, but I think it is about 6. You did well, Mr. Host.
