  • Just a short chase of a pair of the new Western New York & Pennsylvania AC6000CWs. These ex CSX locomotives have been acquired over the last couple of months, with 6001 having arrived just a couple of weeks ago.
    Seen here, I happened to roll up on the train departing Olean with a set of 15 tank cars for Buffalo & Pittsburgh in Salamanca. I shot the train a couple of times on the outbound trip, and again on the return leg.

    Good to see these AC6000s in use. Also that's a pretty cool ditch light flash pattern. Enjoyed the footage!

    I miss the 6000s I really wish csx would’ve rebuilt like they’re doing the AC4400s or like how UP is rebuilding their AC6000s

      I thought CSX had put GEVO 16 engines in some and they made good locomotives, but there's not much info on them, as if they never existed.

    Little railroad. Big power. And 6001's ditch lights weren't working.

    Now 6002 has something very interesting. Its ditch lights are flashing like a car’s hazard lights rather than normal ditch lights. Never seen anything like that before. Very nice catch!

      I noticed that too, found it interesting. I know some locomotives for that but they are pretty rare. I wonder if 6001 is the same way, unfortunately the ditch lights were off.

      VCUrailfan15 productions yeah, I noticed that too. There’s one other guy that posted a video of 6002’s first run. It’s ditch lights worked like they normally do. I’m willing to bet the WNYP is doing this intentionally to their locomotives. They’re definitely making themselves an even more unique railroad with their expansion

      It's a flash pattern that typical to traffic signals called simultaneous flash when both lights on both sections flash simultaneously

      wiring is messed up within the lighting pattern. we had that happen on ours. the wiring has something to do with the flash delay.

    Awesome chase, man! Miss seeing them on CSX but they look pretty sharp in WNY&P paint. Pretty interesting the way the ditch lights flash. Great video!

      The 6 axles seems to be being fazed out as more & more AC60s arrive, but the 4 axles are safe to my knowledge

    Nice to see some AC6000s ended up on a regional railroad! Although WNYP did replace the headlights on some of these units (and a couple of their alcos I believe) with LED lights
