2 Things No Longer Used by CSX
June 30, 2020
There are two things in this image that are no longer in use by CSX but let’s not get ahead of the story just yet.
This image of a container train eastbound in Warwick was made on Oct. 13, 1996.
Lead unit CSXT No. 5891 is a GE B36-7 that was built in July 1985 for Seaboard System.
It has since been retired from the CSX roster although locomotive leasing firm NRE has it available. Just check out their website.
As for the other item no longer used by CSX, that would be the color position light signal.
