Looks like a new CSX Spirit unit has came out from the block, CSX 3444. The Spirit of Ravenna, a GE ET44AH built in October 2016.

Only one retirement in July, as per the CSX Locomotives page on Facebook:
CSX Locomotives wrote:CSX Locomotive Roster Update As of 01 August 2018

Welcome to this month’s CSX Locomotive Roster Update! This update covers all changes discovered since 01 July, through 01 August.

This report represents to the best of our knowledge, the working CSX locomotive roster. There are always changes we are not yet aware of – if you think you’ve spotted a new repaint, let us know!

Another lite update for the first of August, with not many discoveries in July. We will be rolling back the as-yet unconfirmed SD60/I/M retirements before the next update. As you may recall, we received word around January that the entire fleet would be retired from a reliable source, but that decision was then pulled back apparently as the company was still in flux around the loss of CEO E. Hunter Harrison. And so only a few ended up retired, with most in storage since. We’ll bring back the ones we cannot confirm are retired. At least a half dozen are still active.

Any questions? Comment below!

CSX Locomotive Roster Update As of 01 September 2018

Welcome to this month’s CSX Locomotive Roster Update! This update covers all changes discovered since 01 August, through 01 September.

This report represents to the best of our knowledge, the working CSX locomotive roster. There are always changes we are not yet aware of – if you think you’ve spotted a new repaint, let us know!

Another lite update for the first of August, with not many discoveries in July. We have rolled back the SD60/M/I units which were not actually retired back into our numbers. There are currently 21 SD60s, 23 SD60Is, and 24 SD60Ms.

Otherwise we have a few retirements and a few repaints. The 1601 is the last Genset on the roster, and is expected to also be retired soon as well.

Surprised they decided to go ahead and retire 3099. Guess it was just too badly damaged to be worth repairing...

Definitely glad I caught him when I did!

After an accident like that, I don't even know how they could repair it. :No1:

Must've probably been too expensive to repair IMO. (Especially with the back completely gone.)

Yea, after thinking about it some more, I'm not as surprised.

Since CSX 130 - AC4400CW was retired, I'm likely thinking Amtrak 47 - P42DC was retired too? These were locomotives that were involved in the Dixiana, South Carolina train crash back in February.

It appears so, and likely scrapped as well, since it hasn't been seen since February:
