Engine is outside the Harmon dieselshop

I was on Railpictures.Net and found this photo of 210, taken by BurghMan

That is 210 after having been rebuild at Erie(GE) and primed.
picture is at Altoona Pa where Imron painting is beeing done by NS under contract of GE.

With 217 being sent to Eire, is there any word on 206??

206 was due back last night in Harmon, but I have had no word on if it actually arrived.

It did return to Harmon!

Will the 4 CDOT P32's be included in this rebuild program?

yes,they are about last however, I believe the will keep same paint scheme.

Seen a photo of 226 on rrpicturearchives.net in Erie primed and ready to get sent out for paint. 226 should be making it's way back soon.

Why do the rebuilt Genesis engines seem so much slower out of stations than ones that have not been rebuilt?

As has been explained the rebuilds are subject to more stringent EPA rules.
loading fast means polution and yes its annoying but the train still makes same schedule and on time.

Figured I'd update the list of the rebuilt P32's as of now on back on the property:

201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 218, 226, 227

Thanks for the update FL9AC. When did the 226 get back from Eire?? Looks like 215 maybe getting sent out to Eire again.....

Speeking of 226, it was in north white around 10 pm. Gp35 101 was on the south end, with 3 bomb cars, cab unit 6311. Mn 101 headed south with 226 trailing on north end.

226 has been back since about Oct 7 and has been my daily engine in Danbury till last friday when I finaly got another unit.

Thanks for the info Dutch.
