She looks like one of the new 5300 series, a GEVO 4800 HP (I think) with DC traction motors, and without the steerable trucks.

A lot of the detectors in MA and near Albany still say "Conrail" because they still work fine.  These also state the detector name, usually the nearest town.  Newer ones say"CSX" and give you the milepost as the detector name.

no it isnt! i have now just noticed where the oatches are on the ex CR locos. and i'm happy that CSX uses blue as well. it blends in ok and looks far less disruptive than UP desecrating the CNW locomotives. we should post pictures of CR locomotives here too. let the good times roll... IN BLUE!

Your friendly neighborhood CNW fan.
