Can't answer the question myself but related topic, CSX 9122 GP-40 in full Chessie paint arrived in Selkirk and was last seen by the diesel service area on 10/19.
saw that unit on Q366 on tuesday morning. what a rare bird. seeing a chessie unit these days is like bill buckner coming back to manage the red sox!

According to the Bullsheet, there are three. Numbered #9120 thru 9122. They are the RC platforms that Nip mentioned.

FYI: The 9122 headed west from Selkirk to Buffalo on Q285 yesterday.
I would like to see a Chessie scheme around here for a change, even though I am allergic to shoving platforms. LOL

I remember the Chessie Logo myself, I remember seeing engines with that logo back in 1986/87 when I lived in Germantown Maryland, and I would see them pull almost all freight trains in the WAS-Martinsburg WV line, which passes thru Germantown.
