"Spirit" Locomotive Names

I have misplaced my list of "Spirit" locomotive names, and could not find the post in the Forum.

Can someone provide a current list of the "Spirit" names?

Thanks in advance!

I know the 789 is the "Spirit of Nashville" as I have that particular locomotive downloaded on Train Simulator.

Here's a list so far:

AC6000CW 601: Spirit of Waycross
AC6000CW 602: Spirit of Maryland
SD70MAC 700: Spirit of Cumberland
SD70MAC 789: Spirit of Nashville
SD70M 4685: Spirit of Mayberry
SD70M 4688: Spirit of Tampa
SD70M 4699: Spirit of Miami

I thought that #700had been wrecked ?!?

700 has been repaired

1 named "Spirit of West Virginia"

295 named "Spirit of the Clinchfield"

356 named "Spirit of Brunswick"

391 named "Spirit of Dante"

454 named "Spirit of Magnolia"

500 named "Spirit of Grafton"

601 named "Spirit of Waycross"

602 named "Spirit of Maryland"

700 named "Spirit of Cumberland"

789 named "Spirit of Nashville"

2236 has a yellow nose with an orange tint.

4685 named "Spirit of Mulberry"

4688 named "Spirit of Tampa"

4699 named "Spirit of Miami"

5107 named "W. Thomas Rice Special" wrecked, below

Judging buy this picture I didn't thnk it would be salvaged.


As far as the list of "Pride Of" locomotives, looking at the names is a reminder that CSX doesn't consider the Northeast to be part of the family. lol

Nip,
Thank you for the update. Obviously those 2 sites I had linked need to do some serious updating.

Obviously it was as I shot it at East Hamler (Hamler, Ohio) back in early February.

Thanks all!

I appreciate your responses and the update! The list that I couldn't find had not been updated.

Best wishes!

Wasn't doubting that it had been....just never saw it around here. (because t can't be a leader on the B&A due to no cab signals)

Don't forget SD80MAC #800 "The Spirit of Benning" the only former Conrail SD80MAC spirit locomotive.

No kidding - why not repainted Conrail units lettered 'Spirit of Selkirk' or 'Spirit of Cleveland'? Whoever makes these decisions is clueless.

Just like many other decisions.

what happened to the spirit or pride of selkirk?

Just tells you that the H.L.S. (huntington Locomotive Shop) can fix anything just about. I also thought that CSX had one of the B40-8s painted up with a "SpiritOf" scheme.

So, what is the story behind all the spirit locomotives? What do the names reprisent?
