In this section you will find some ex CSXT GE B40-8s purchased in January, 2017. These engines were supposed to be sold to the Berkshire & Eastern for use on the Patriot Coridor service, but have had to come to Waterville for service because the East Deerfield roundhouse was taken down leaving it unable to do major services and PanAm retained part ownership at Waterville. Waterville still has a roundhouse, with turntable and back shops with a transfer table.
