Eastern Railroad Discussion > "Wow, is that a NYC under that hood"Date: 04/19/20 17:28 "Wow, is that a NYC under that hood" Author: Fiftyfooter Date: 04/19/20 17:34 Re: "Wow, is that a NYC under that hood" Author: thebluecomet Basically during the Conrail spilt between CSX and NS, the old reporting marks, still valid, were used by both roads to denote which road got what equipment. NS used PRR and CSX used NYC.

On freight cars they left the CR markings as is. CSX put NYC on the ones that went to them as stated above. On locomotives CSX change the number but did not place NYC under them. Could be wrong on this. Ed ( Eddie ) Durnwald Fostoria, Ohio Date: 04/20/20 04:41 Re: "Wow, is that a NYC under that hood" Author: toledopatch Thoroughbred-Ed Wrote:

This is all correct.

I've seen some CSX MOW equipment with CR markings which never made sense---but never with PRR markings....
