Built in the 1970's, CSX is one of the only class one railroads to still have active U-Boats on the roster. One of these rare units, CSX B36-7 #5867, made an appearance in Colorado on the MLAUDEN. At the time of this photo, the 5867 was one of 87 B36-7's still on CSX's roster (in the number range 5807-5925). Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
