Nope, not the derated SD50's..those are called SD50-2's on CSX..
There are a lot of references on-line of CSX SD50's being rebuilt (derated), and then called SD50-2's..
thats quite well known..
and I just found a reference here:
http://cs.trains.com/trccs/forums/t/166561.aspx
that says:
SD50-2s was just a derate of the prime mover. SD50-3s are a full rebuild.
so we have the CSX SD50-2, which is a derated SD50..
and now it seems some "full rebuilds" of SD50's are coming from CSX,
these are the SD50-3's.
But that doesnt explain the SD40-3, which is the topic of this thread..
I would guess there must be a plan in the works to rebuild some SD40-2's..
which makes sense, since there are so many of them..
