Eastern Railroad Discussion > New CSX ES44AH with New Logo out for deliveryDate: 10/29/11 12:45 New CSX ES44AH with New Logo out for delivery Author: CSX4838 Well it was last Sunday that I made the 90 minute trip to the GE plant in Erie, PA and saw The new CSX logo on unit 951 and have not heard or seen anything about them since. So, I decided to take a chance and head out this morning to see if I could find any more. When I left it was raining then sleeting then snowing and when I got to Ashtabula, the sun was shinning. By the time I made it to Erie, it was pretty cloudy and sprinkling. The good thing is that there were 3 units setting out ready to be picked up and accessible. Unit numbers were 953, 950 and 954. Sorry for the so so quality, but it was cloudy with light rain showers

Hard to tell from that angle. I supposed it is supposed to represent CSX inside a train car? Interesting tweak that somebody came up with.

The CSX logo by itself is much larger, it would be the size of the whole box car affect....going to look like a small logo from afar.

"Dark Future" is just to blah. Almost makes me glad I am in BNSF and UP territory now.

Wonder if that was the legal department's contribution for the year....
Great pictures given the elements not cooperating! Davis Date: 10/29/11 14:23 Re: New CSX ES44AH with New Logo out for delivery Author: calsubd Thanks for the update, Ed

It almost looks like a heavy duty extention cord, and I've never seen this before. Is this something that only appies to CSX ES44AHs or is it a new GE modification?
