CSX TALLAHASSEE SUBDIVISION GENERAL FREIGHT IV Tallahassee, Fl; June 2000. Q606
After the merger with Conrail, the power crunch slowly gets south.
To deal with it, CSX leases engines from anybody...Here, a former MK unit
(now Helms) helps with the typical UP/SP consist.
Tallahassee, Fl; June 2000. Q601
CSX brought a lot of power from Helms in that era. Here is HATX 1525
SD45-2 a former Seabaord engine.
Tallahassee, Fl; June 2000. Q609
Power from LRCX (SF30C from Santa Fe) and Helms (SD40? from Boston
& Maine) have control of this Q609.
Tallahassee, Fl; October 2000. Q609.
CEFX gets a piece of the lease market by purchasing the SP tunnel motors
from UP, which ends back on the main behind an even older UP engine!!!
Tallahassee, Fl; April 2001. Q602.
As the leasing frenzy was winding down, 2 former SD40-2s from BN under
Helms flag help some veteran CSX power with the eastbound.
