Just to be clear, these haven’t just been sitting around since CSX retired them. They went to a lesser who then sold a bunch of C40-8s to Pan Am Railways, and, with the recent acquisition by CSX, they’re now apparently back in the family at age 33. Looks good though!!👌

A dozen or so of the early units were sold to the Pudacah & Louisville around 8 years ago.

The six scheduled rebuilds from Erie, not Ft. Worth are now coming out, all former 400 series units. 437 is now 7275, 441 is now 7276, 456 is now 7277, 493 is now 7278. 447 "should" become 7279. Perhaps a mistake, but maybe not, but 480 is showing as 7380, not 7280.

One more new one from Ft. Worth is 7274, former 173-2 aka former CSX 1.

This video shows 493, 437, 480 and 447 before rebuilding at Erie. According to the video, the batch of units currently being rebuilt at Erie had pre-exisitng damage or issues that needed to be addressed before being rebuilt/modernized.

What Happened to CSX 914? https://media.discordapp.net/attachment ... nknown.png
First I don't think that is recent.
My guess is that it went through a restricted height loader/unloader.

US Gypsum at Plaster City did that to one of their narrow gauge locomotives some years back.
