Bright Future On The Island. On the bright but slightly overcast afternoon of July 31, 2013, CSX C711 was heading north across Iona Island Access Road in Iona Island, New York with "Bright Future/YN2" painted GP38-2 CSXT 2809 (née-CR 8273,EMD, 6/1979) leading. This unit has since been rebuilt as a GP38-3 and renumbered CSXT 2002. At the time it was not uncommon to see geeps on locals, but in the modern era these runs are typically handled by six-axle power.
