Fellow Members <br /> <br />No one has brought up anything about AC4400 and Dash 9's meeting tier 1 and beyond. I hear emissions for GE is going to be a definite thorn in the side. Also, about SD70M order to CSX. CSX did order SD70MAC's years ago. The AC cousin to the 70M. CSX did pick up the old EMD lease fleet of SD70M's that were typically out in California. It was not a new order though. EMD swapped CSX for a boatload of GP38'S for SD70M's and GP60's. It was a deal with LLPX. Joint venture between EMD and GATX. Don't know the road numbers of the SD70M's though. NS bought 10 SD70M's along with the 1000 UP SD70M's order. Better price tacking it onto the 1000 unit order. Who is the so called EMD REP?????
