   Date: 04/10/24 08:49 Re: Wabtec Test Track-CSX Erie, Pa. and an Eclipse Author: globalethanol Sunday, Amtrak 48 gets it up to track speed
just out of the station in Erie. Then re-route M 216 comes east with 41 racks. Later a short 76 axle westbound with SD70 MAC #4589 former "Spirit of Nashville" shows up. CSX can put those cute little DPU stickers on but couldn`t re-apply "Spirit of Nashville" on the cab. No class! You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos. Join Today!

and Monday`s eclipse. Worth the trip just hearing those 40-2`s idle! tom  You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos. Join Today! Date: 04/10/24 09:09 Re: Wabtec Test Track-CSX Erie, Pa. and an Eclipse Author: perklocal Way to go Tom ! That BL20GH is an interesting looking critter.

Is Wabtec doing some rebuilding on that series? Date: 04/10/24 10:09 Re: Wabtec Test Track-CSX Erie, Pa. and an Eclipse Author: globalethanol Check out the Metro North roster on rrpicturearchives. Looks like they had 12 of them and were built in 2008 2009.
