CSX Railroad (CSX) 6389 - EMD GP40-2

This GP40-2 displayed a split personality as it handled Seaboard System train M733, the <I>STELLA TURN</I>, on the former Louisville & Nashville at Cantonment, Florida - just north of Pensacola. The unit still wore the lettering and emblem of its former owner, but the number of its new one! The geep had been built as Georgia Railroad 755 and was then renumbered as Seaboard System 6643, and it was later SBD 6389 and then CSXT 6389.

6389 is entering Waycross with its train in 1989.

CSXT 6389 is seen at Cumberland, MD. Unit is ex SBD 6643/GA 755 and was later renumbered to CSXT 6958 when the unit was rebuilt to a slug mother.

Engine facility

CSX was still young as evidenced by this shot at Grafton, WV, with the two main components of CSX represented: Chessie and Seaboard System.

All right, who's the wise guy that put the battery box covers on the wrong side?
