for years, CSX has bought nothing but AC locomotives
now they buy unproved DC GE junk?
They werent impressed with the CW44-9's they bought and thats why they went in a different direction
I just dont understand this, especially after the fiasco with the HDL powered AC6000's
Tony Ingram, formerly of NS, is the Exec. VP of Transportation.....NS doesn't believe in AC technology....Tony Ingram was schooled in the NS party line; therefore orders for DC technology.
Facts, Facts.....Don't confuse me with facts.
