According to both TRAINS and EXTRA 2200 South,not only are there no orders for 6,000HP units from either builder,but no prospects for any. In fact it's conceivable that many of the already delivered units may get new lower horsepower engines,as CSX has started doing with some of their AC6000CW fleet(being converted to AC4400CW's).UP bought significant numbers of AC60/44 and SD90/43 units,which were meant to be upgraded with 6000HP prime movers once the bugs were worked out,now it's almost a certainty that they won't be.
