Hello Brakie, Does CSX use the MATEs in phosphate service as SCL once did? In addition to the Columbia & Cowlitz and OC&E, the Pacific Northwest had another species of slug (besides the ubiquitous Banana Slug that thrives on the wet, west sides of Washington and Oregon). The Northern Pacific had three "Electric Trailers", two of which were rebuilt from Baldwin V0-660s and a third from a VO-1000. They were built for and assigned to Pasco, Wash., when the hump yard opened there in the mid-1950s. A slug by any other name works just as hard. ETs 1 and 2 were retired in the late 1980s and later sold to the Azcon Corp. ET-3 was sold to the Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range. Anyone have information on its disposition?
