Description

Railroad Short Name: CSX

In 1984, EMD unveiled the first four SD60 demonstrator units. The SD60 was equipped with a 3,800 horsepower, 16 cylinder, turbocharged 710 engine. Five years later, EMD began offering the SD60 with the “safety” wide nose cab, thus creating the SD60M. Union Pacific was the first to acquire the SD60M followed by Burlington Northern, Soo Line, and Conrail. Conrail also ordered SD60I “isolated cab” versions. BN’s SD60M’s went to BNSF while Conrail’s units were split between Norfolk Southern and CSX.

After the CR split in 1999, CSX acquired 30 ex-CR SD60M’s. Around 2007, they were repainted into CSX’s more simplified “YN3” scheme while retaining most of the CR-specific details. They operated until 2017 when their lease expired, and they were sold off to a leasing company.
