A New Life for an Old EMD

By: ApproachSlowRO


Description

A New Life for an Old EMD - Newly rebuilt engine 1714, part of the new SD23T4 series for CSX, leads southbound weed sprayer train W053. These engines were meant to be used for locals and yard jobs as a modern answer to those needs, however so far they're almost always seen on non-revenue trains.

Just another railfan from the DC area. I enjoy photographing and watching trains, as well as travel, mainly to see trains though. Have I mentioned trains enough?
