genestuemke <br />Maybe you can describe for me what CSX's "new" paint scheme looks like to some degree of detail? I myself see a few AC-powered units with road numbers in the 600-699 range, with a lightning streak below the number to denote AC. Those brutes are always a thrill for me to watch simply because they're so darn powerful! More common, however, are AC4400CW's with road numbers from 1-599. (The lowest I've recorded is #77). Those have a yellow nose that leads into a yellow stripe along the running board, blue cabs that lead into a blue stripe above the running board, and an entirely bluish-gray carbody. Big, blue CSX letters appear on the sides just ahead of the radiator wings. Should I be looking for some other distinguishing paint characteristics? It will be interesting to keep an eye out!
