WAYCROSS, Ga. – CSX Transportation’s third heritage locomotive is No. 1982 honoring the Seaboard System.

CEO Joe Hinrichs posted photos of the locomotive today on LinkedIn, with the ES44AH posing outside the paint shop in Waycross, Ga.

The Seaboard locomotive joins CSX’s Baltimore & Ohio and Chessie System heritage units. Each locomotive is numbered for the year that the predecessor railroad became part of CSX.
