There is alot of chatter about more power coming for EMR and NBSR. Does anyone have the latest intel on what is happening. From what I have seen it looks like the Irvings have loosened their pocket books to get the new power. I guess they are in it for the long run.

Why wouldn't they be? They're in the perfect position. Sounds like some GP-40-2s, and a few more six axles, will probably arrive painted in company colors like the last batch.

6 exNS GP40-2's, 4 SD70M-2's, and 5-14 exPan Am GP40's that are owned by GMTX that will be replacing the worn out exCSX GP38-2's they have been leasing.
