This is the first time I saw a YN2 AC4400CW used in DPU service & also the first time I saw an AC4400CW used as a DPU as well. And from what I was told by a CSX engineer I know, he told me that most of the CSX AC4400CW's are be converted to that they can be used in DPU distributed power unit service now. So I can definitely tell as next years comes round, I'll be seeing a lot of AC4400CW's used as DPU. Usually it's ES44AH's. Description of video below:
Here is video I recorded in Mentor Ohio this past Monday October 11th, 2021 of CSX westbound intermodal train Q017 with 128 wells / platforms of containers & trailers, lead by 2 YN3b Tier 4 ET44AH's #3331 & #3403 trailing 2nd + mid DPU distributed power unit YN2 AC4400CW #505.
