help identify an engine
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, June 26, 2004 11:28 AM
I am just getting back into trains now that I have a young son that has help respark my intrest. My question is this. I've noticed on the csx line that travels along I-75 in Ohio there has been a gold and blue engine that has a snowmobiler on the side of it. I have seen this engine a few times, but have not found any information on this engine to tell me what line it originated from. Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks MIke
