Updated list as of this morning. I am told that the shops have been instructed to step it up a notch, as GE is expecting to be ready to deliver the ES44AC's sooner then first anticipated. I'm also told that's good, because CSX wants to start DPU ops sooner than originally planned.

CSXT4508
CSXT4510-4511
CSXT4515-4519

Well I had the 779 on W08018 Herzog ballast train, and it is due its inspection in about 12 days so I would imagine that it will be history by the end of the month.
