Is the 76' length over pilots or pulling faces? SpaceCaptain 22:38, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

CSX derated some of the CW60AC units, that information should be added. n2xjk 20:15, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To 4400 hp? I've heard that. On a related note, I thought the AC6000s were delivered with 6000 (tractive?) hp as the name suggests. Somewhere, I read that (some of?) CSX's units were uprated to 6250 hp. SpaceCaptain (talk) 05:20, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some were downgraded to 4400 to meet EPA's environmental standards. But yes, the original specs were for 6000hp.

Image added

I felt the original image in the info box showing the unique and oversized radiator section was adequate for that use, however a side view of the unit is also valuable imho, so I added one as a thumbnail w/ caption. Ken (talk) 19:50, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
