NS Gorail unit?

On hu.com, there is an NS locomotive number 6963 that is apparently being tracked. What the heck is it?

NS 6531 SD60 has been rebuilt to NS 6963 SD60E and features special GORAIL decals and modified NS paint scheme.

 And, according to AltoonaWorks:

 Ten years ago today, GoRail was founded to promote the public benefits of shipping more freight by rail. To celebrate, we have a big surprise coming at Railroad Day on Capitol Hill next week.

Um, what happened to the other, informative posts that were posted here earlier this evening????

 Thanks for the replies. I am perplexed what happened to the other posts and the photo that were here earlier. Now that I think about it, is it a locomotive that NS wanted to unveil on its terms and perhaps they asked to have the photo here removed?

Article on the Trains Newswire, but I'm not a subscriber so all I see is a thumbnail of the very front of the unit masked up but has green on it.

 I'd guess that's it, yes.

 This is the picture that was removed. A post that was removed by Odd said NS wanted to unveil the unit at a special ceremony in DC.

The post said NS was watching different sites to make sure it didn't leak out.

It may not be pretty, but it is ugly.

Have to say the NS needed some color to their paint scheme.
Neon green makes everything better.
