Finger Lakes Railway
November 10, 2014 – Finger Lakes Railway’s GMTX 3303 sits at CSX’s engine service facility at Atkinson Yard in Madisonville, Ky after being dropped off by Paducah and Louisville Railroad. The engine is out of the VMV shops in Paducah. It’s a SD 38-2. It is awaiting a CF400 inspection before heading out on the Henderson Subdivision. The inspection is to check the clearance of the engine to insure there won’t be any issues with moving it on CSX. Finger Lakes Railway is located in Geneva, NY and so I assume this engine will move north at some point over the next few days. It does have the GMTX lease markings so I am guessing they’ve leased the unit.
