CSX Selkirk, NY
CSX got their money’s worth out of CSXT 8060. Railroaders knew the value of the simpler EMDs from this era in yard and local service when both EMD and GE built only microprocessor controlled road locomotives. Built for the Seaboard Coast Line in the summer of 1979, this SD40-2 continues to serve in its original form more than 40 years later. It sits with the knife switch closed in the Selkirk inspection line wash bay during regular maintenance.
