CSX Corporation introduced two special locomotives numbered 250 and 2026 to commemorate the United States' 250th anniversary. Painted with patriotic themes—the Stars and Stripes and an American bald eagle with "United We Stand"—these modern locomotives highlight CSX's historic and ongoing role in supporting the U.S. economy through rail transportation. Following a ceremonial run in Washington, D.C., the locomotives will enter regular service across CSX's network, reinforcing the company's commitment to national unity and economic growth.
