Description CSXT 6898, one of the last two GP60 locomotives currently on the roster, leads the daily J713 westbound through Atwood, Illinois.

A dreary, rainy day was fitting for this chase. This engine probably isn't long on the roster, and with the Decatur Sub up for sale, scenes like this won't be around for long

What's the story behind the rounded edges on the cab and nose and dynamic blister? I haven't seen it on a GP60 before

This was one of the demonstrator GP60's, road number EMD6. The rounded corners never made it to production.

Aha, that explains it. Thanks!
