I have heard that there are only a couple of BQ23-7 locomotives remaining in the CSXT dead lines, unless they have been cut up. Does anyone know for sure which ones still remain, if any, and what their numbers are? <p>If there is a survivor, it should be preserved as an early example of the comfort cab concept. I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is and provide funding for the preservation of a BQ23-7 locomotive, either intact or just a carbody. I have a place to move it to for restoration as well.<p>Get me the info. and I'll make the inquiries.<br> bighookx45@aol.com |

Rick, I corresponded with CSXT, via their<br>surplus equipment disposal website, and I was told that they weren't making the locomotives<br>available for sale/otherwise.<p>Of course, this may not be the best corporate avenue...perhaps a query to CSXT head offices?<br> hi-plains@juno.com |

Rick...somehow I don't have the specific URL for CSXT's surplus sales page. Try searching thru the main site at www.csxt.com<br> tvrha@star-telegram.com |
