That is GE's AC4400CW. You can tell because the cabinent on the left side is large to accomidate AC intercooling system, and it is equipped with the Steerable trucks (unlike the "HiAd" on Dash 9-44CWs)
The locomotive behind it appears to be an AC6000CW.
Yes, it does look to be an AC as the back edge of the cabinent extends past the front of the fuel tank.
Many do consider the "AC to be an A.C. traction version of the Dash 9-44CW" (Field Guide to Modern Diesel Locomotives), i.e., they are both very similar. The main difference (besides AC traction components) is the size of the electrical cabinent on the left side and vented access panels on the right side of the locomotive.
AC44CW
Look at the road numbers and the lighting bolt.
This has to be an AC Locomotives.

Great. Got it.
Thanks MartyE. I thought I used the correct command but used the back slash instead of the forward slash in the second set of command brackets.
Okay now for my second question. Since I am train illiterate, could one of the train pros tell me what type of locomotive this is. My son and I snapped this last week in the the North Carolina mountains and would like to know what it is. Thanks all.

Okay, I tried to follow the instructions posted, but obviously it didn't work. Using shutterfly for my picture host can someone help out with posting pics. Thanks.
Folks I have no idea what I'm doing so this is a test. Thanks for your patience.
