For the first time, Croton is host to a wide cab engine.  What we see here are the two engines that I previously recorded up in Poughkeepsie.  These two engines, SD60M's 8759 and 8768, are to replace the SD40-2's, which are getting up in years.  Most, if not all, of the 8800's we have down here we built in the mid 1970's, whereas the 8700's were built in the early 1990's.  After getting a look at the SD60M's and SD40-2 8832, which was down here due to bad cab signals, we see B749, the yard local, as it gets ready to drill the yard.  B749 has a pair of GP38-2's.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The video was taken on April 29th, 2009.
