Posted by Lewis Marien on March 22, 2012  Beautiful night shot. Just beautiful. Posted by BJ on March 22, 2012  Is that N&W unit in the background part of the heritage lineup as well??? Posted by Peyton Gupton on March 22, 2012  Most colorful and heritage filled day in Chattanooga in a while... All it needs is the 630! Posted by on March 22, 2012  NW unit belongs to the Virginia Transportation Museum in Roanoke. Has been repainted by NS for them. Posted by Harry Gaydosz on March 22, 2012  Does anyone care about the 4610 being painted black anymore? Posted by Wang Halen on March 22, 2012  Beautiful! Thank you NS! Posted by on March 22, 2012  Great shot, the light on the undercarriage is very well done. Posted by Don Oltmann on March 22, 2012  The N&W SD45 in the background belongs to the Virginia Transportation Museum and was repainted using grant money from Trains Magazine. It is their bicentennial paint scheme. Posted by Carl Massart on March 22, 2012  I haven't been this excited since the US Mint started issuing the 50 state quarters! BTW. Nice shot Casey. Next up try one of those x-ray shots like Anthony Dickson has done. Better hurry before they get dirty. Posted by Dave Blaze... on March 22, 2012  Wow....gorgeous shot of a stunning machine. Posted by Jake McGarvie on March 22, 2012  Top shelf shot Casey and NS. I like how the black on the trucks shines and the dual colors on the carbody look just stunning in this nite shot. Eagrly anticipating thr remainder of the heritage fleet. Posted by Ryan M. Martin on March 22, 2012  Hey, now here's a REAL Southern "Belle" - ain't she beautiful!?! KUDOS to NS for rolling out their own (extensive) Heritage Paint Unit program! Posted by Tom Keeping on March 22, 2012  Wow!! What an awesome looking paint job! Unbelievable - and to think that we are gonna have more! What was probably just a pipe dream for foamers has become a reality. Thank you so much, NS! Great shot, Casey! Talk about living the dream...it can't get much better than this. You are blessed! Posted by Tony King on March 22, 2012  Hands down, the best looking locomotive of the 21st century so far! Posted by on March 23, 2012  I heard about 4610 being repainted. The only railroads around me are the Atlantic & Western Railway and CSX. I hardly ever see NS & have never seen 4610 in that wonderful Southern paint. I guess I won't unless they repaint it in the future. But at least they got that paint on this engine. Thanks NS! Posted by rlinejct139 on March 23, 2012  WOW! Christmas in March! That's the best looking paint scheme on the rails right now!! Posted by Jesse Allen on March 23, 2012  For me, this is the most elegant and beautiful paint application on a late model locomotive. Excellent photo! Thank you NS! The Southern Serves the South! Posted by Wharton Separk on March 24, 2012  Excellent photo, Casey ... Thanks again NS. Posted by James Byberg on March 25, 2012  You guys are beating us railfans to the punch. But we would like to see the 1776 posed with the 8099 as well!
