<p>As stated above, the SD50's (and GP50's, for that matter) were wrought with problems. The quirks were eventually worked out and CSX's SD50's still soldier on today (most of the origonal 125?). Recently, they have begun derating them to 3000 HP and calling them SD50-2's.</p><p>CSX only ordered 10 SD60's new. As far as I know they were fine, but at the time CSX was more interested in GE's Dash 8's. CSX aquired more SD60's when they split Conrail with NS. I believe even Conrail only had about 30 or 40 of them. NS ordered SD60's new, too, though I wouldn't know how many. NS has many GP60's, which are loved by the crews as they are the ultimate, smooth riding 4 axle. The ones crews hate are the GP60M's. the widecab is too heavy and weighs down the front of the engine and makes for one rough ride.</p>
