| Notes: | |
A |
Spotted headed north on CSX out of Waycross, GA on April 17, 2008. Unit was incomplete. The frame had been stripped and primed, and the new cab and short hood installed. It also appeared to have a dynamic brake enclosure in place, but no gensets when photographed. 2005 showed up in Louisville, KY on May 1, headed for Mayfield, presumably for finishing as with the 2003. |

Unit history provided by Joe Ferguson with a little bit of help from the Unofficial EMD Homepage.UMLER search shows it as former UP 1991, but that has been proven not to be the case. Ex-UP 1991 moved as PRSX 2007 to Mayfield, KY, arriving in late March 2008. It was already at Mayfield before the 2005 began its conversion. |
