Glorious NSE Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yeah - but this is how BNSF treated that! http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=473329 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Gwinnett Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yeah - but this is how BNSF treated that! http://www.rrpicture....aspx?id=473329 I may be in the minority here, but i think it looks better in the "after" pic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Let's try and keep this thread open to the NS Heritage units. Some of the other pics are really cool but at some point when we want to actually look for them we may not look in a NS thread..... Martyn are you getting alerts from RP???????????? Best, Pete.

Glorious NSE Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 On a FB group with some folk who are keeping a close eye. SOU8099 with a blast from the past http://www.facebook....52692547&type=3 Coming up soon, N&W8100 http://www.facebook....&type=3 (Is that a random MBTA unit on the right?!)

Supaned Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The MBTA unit looks like a GP40MC - presumably going to the shops for major repairs, unless they've started to get rid of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelmaker87 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 And the finished paint job on the SOU unit. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=392712&nseq=0 Cheers, Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glorious NSE Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 8099 (Southern unit's) first revenue run was on the 23rd - NS publicity shot on Railpictures: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=392928&nseq=0 What I love about this particular project is just how far NS are getting into the spirit of it - they aren't just painting em up and putting em out there because somebody thought up a pet project, they've embraced this totally - info on the website, railroad-arranged publicity shots via their website, FB, Railpictures.net - they are really milking it. And more power to em frankly! If you're on Facebook then this is worth keeping an eye on for the current froth buzz.... http://www.facebook.com/pages/NS-Heritage-Locomotives/374866022543118 They reckon 8100 may not end up the N&W but might be NKP...
