Agreed. Thanks fir posting.
Are the horns on these different from the rest if the CSX fleet? They seem to be.

I'm not a horn expert, but they sure sounded different.  I also read on a FB post that the Huntington Shop folks hand picked the horns for these units.  (It was on Facebook so it HAS to be true)!

They both have RS5T's. Very rare and old-style. Now if only they could be cab-mounted!

RS5T on 911 and an S5T on 1776

Bumping this thread to see if anyone knows what's running on this subdivision these days.
