I came across the following photo on RailPictures:
http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=274701
The caption mentions that these units had the words "XR Series" on the frame, and that XR apparently stood for Extra Reliability and that this was some sort of upgrade performed on the units by GE.
I've never heard of XR Series until now. Can anyone tell me anything about it?
