CSXT (B&O) GP40-2 6150
Title:  CSXT (B&O) GP40-2 6150
Description:  CSXT (B&O) GP40-2 6150 on the BN at Clyde, Illinois on February 5, 1988, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built as B&O 4251 in February 1977 (c/n 767034-5) it appears to be B&O 6150, although it is likely CSXT 6150. This is a GP40-2, based on further discussion with Patrick Smith, see Comments below. A couple of sources indicate that the turbocharger may be de-activated and the unit de-rated to 2200 horsepower to get around some emission standards. However, this did not occur until at least sometime in the 2000's.
