CSXT Gallery

Photographer: Paolo Roffo Location: Framingham, MA Date: July 1999 Description: Paolo says this was the last time he shot active, unpatched Conrail units. Shortly after this, he went on vacation. When he got back, the B23-7s had been replaced with CSX 6200-series EMDs and the 80MACs were either patched or gone. This pair was waiting for their CSX numbers; 4100 became CSX 800, and 4122 became CSX 809.
