Black “Nickel Plate” Looking ES44AC
Author: billyjacobs19

I was riding down I-44 West through Webster Groves, MO and saw a BNSF M-train sitting east approaching the Lindenwood Yard on the Cuba Sub. The last engine on the consist was a black Gevo with yellow paint. The paint was shiny but couldn’t tell what it was specifically. More info would be appreciated!

It's probably one of the units for the WNYP, coming from the A&M in Springdale AR to Olean NY

That was WNYP 6001 (nee CSXT/PRLX 5003) headed to WNYP delivery at Meadville, PA, one of eight purchased.  Model CW46AH rebuilt from GE AC6000s by CSXT.

Any suggestions on how this train is routed to its destination?
