Well...it sounds like it's official, CSX has leased all the SD80MACs and they are headed to Mexico (long term). Get your shots while you can Sad

I kind of figured that it would happen sooner or latter. Nope Those units are the odd ones out in the fleet,. I really thought that they would sell them off to another road before they leased them.


Re: CSX SD80MACs - conrailmike - 11-03-2010

I still can't understand why NS and CSX split those up. You'd think that for the small amount of them that were built, either railroad would've just taken them all when they split Conrail up.

Well...at least two of them will still be running on my layout. I just picked up a NS 80MAC to run with my Conrail 80MAC patched unit. And with CSX getting rid of theirs, maybe there will be some good deals sitting on the shelves of hobby stores around the country as owners try to unload the CSX units.
