| The intend of this list is to delineate specific capital
rebuild programs undertaken by major railroad shops. (It is far from
complete.) The list will also highlight the scope of the modernization.
Note A: CSX's Capital Rebuild Program is anticipated to include 300
units, acording to a March 2011 press release.
