Here is NS 209 today with the NS 2657. I didnt expect to get these down here this quick considering it took awhile before the GEVOs made an appearence.

The NS SD70M-2 units that are being assembled and finished at VMV in Kentucky are then routed to the NS shop in Chatannoga, TN, where they are put into service. That's why these units are appearing in the south so soon after delivery.

What's the break in the numbering between the SD70M's and the SD70M-2's??? I know the SD70M's go up at least to 2633, because I had that unit recently on a UPRR train.

I also see that NS has now joined the ranks of UPRR in eliminating the nose door window...a positive step with regards to frontal impact integrity.

SD70M's go up to 2648, SD70M-2's start at 2649 and goto 2700.

None of NS' widecab SD70Ms have door windows...
