Southbound on the KP, CSX U303 emerges from Russell Tunnel sporting a duo of brand new GE ES44AC's numbered consecutively. The 4th quarter order of AC's consist of engines 950-999. The locomotives are designed for DPU service in the coalfields. The most recent 2011 order of GE's revealed a slight change to the "Dark Future" YN3 paint scheme, including a new "boxcar logo", black numberboards, and a change in the location of the nose door.
