If you look in the screenshots of the CSX SD80MAC, in the background are several NS C40-8s.....spoiler alert.

Interesting

It looks like a Dash 9 Standard Cab.

At least it has its own thread now, this is what got the original sd80mac thread closed.

Those C40-8s don't look like no Standard Cab Dash 9s.

The mon line has seen a host of locomotive power. During the Conrail era allot of GE stuff to include the C39-7 and C40-8 were on those lines. P&LE and the former Monongahela railroad used their GP38-2 and the B23-7.
Good catch on the screen shots.

This is the c40-8, that is the c40-8w.

Yeah, I edited it now.

I'm glad to see RSC is going all-in on this route. With the recent releases of the NS ES44AC, GP38-2 and SD40-2 (which also have NS boxcars and etc) and the upcoming SD60E from Mike Durdan, and now apparently a spartan cab GE, plus the Dash-9 and SD70M-2 we already have along with the CSX SD80MAC and SD70MAC, ES44AC and SD40-2 that launched into the Marketplace, what else has run on this route that hasn't been modeled for the game? Sure it's not all perfect but RSC does seem to be constantly improving- I mean, just listen to the horn and engine sounds on the SD80 and the new P32! Worlds apart from the days of RW3 (SD70, anyone?). Personally, I applaud them for sticking with it unlike routes in the past where they've left large amounts of very common stock un-modeled (Horseshoe Curve, original NEC).

The only problem is, I can't afford all the different DLC authors will put in their workshop scenarios

Well said! +1 Definitely feeling East Coast love from RSC right now.
