FEC ES44's

I don't see any photo!

Must be a "stealth" pant scheme...

Here's the link to the previous thread on these engines.  The second page have a photo of one of them at the GE plant.

Yes but, I would much rather see the photo of them departing Bowden Yard, today.

I apologize for no pic. I was given the info by a former coworker who's a local conductor that works out of Fort Lauderdale for the FEC. I'm sure the photos will be coming soon to ALL the 'picture' sites.

I just saw them flying thru Titusville 30 minutes ago southbound , and on the back of the train 2 old observation cars , one was fluted side Pullman round end , in tow backwards with a white colored heavyweight as well .

The locos are in the Red and Yellow scheme , worst part my camera card was full and I did  not realize it till it was too late .

I saw these two in a picture on Railpictures.net -- When I compare the implementation of the "champion" scheme on these to the way it was done on the SD40's, I don't like it as much. Especially the black on the top of the nose. It's so much of a contrast that it draws the eyes right to it. The picture on RP shows the right side of the engines.

      

I'll see these eventually....
