3 Lease locomotives have been received in interchange from CSX at North Bergen NJ this week for service on the NYS&W. They are 2 SD40-3's and a GP38. the SD40-3's are CEFX 3108, solid grey with white reflective striping; CEFX 3126(in an SD45 carbody) in blue with white striping; and HLCX 101, a solid black GP38, with "HLCX" under the cab and "1010" in large white numerals on the side of the carbody, reminiscent of the old Illinois Central. As of today (July 5) they are all in Ridgefield Park NJ, presumably getting the once over and prepped for service. So much for solid yellow and black road consists, at least for the time being......
I know I'm getting old... My insurance company sent me only half a calendar this year!
