Georgia Road Emblem on CSX GP38-3 6509
Author: srman

Noticed this yesterday while out and about sitting in the north end of Osborn Yard in Louisville Ky. It's on both sides and thought that it was a little unusual. I know the emblem is on ET44AH 3415 but never realized it was on another. Perhaps a CSX employee who was a Georgia Railroad fan had a couple of extra decals and applied them to this unit.

It was originally the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company, and the herald is supposedly a stylized rendition of the bank building in Augusta:

Then no wonder it has that emblem. That's pretty cool to know, Thanks Stuart.
