GP16 Dispositions

CSX retired the GP16's by early 1993, and they ended up everywhere from the scrap yard to working for short lines. I have only really followed the GP16’s through their career ending with CSX. I have listed the disposition info I could find on the CSX GP16's. I'm sure others have more detailed info. So If you would like to provide any information about where the fleet of CSX GP16's ended up, please email me, David Moore, at sclgator@yahoo.com. and I will update this page.
