What's not to like! Great Job NS
|
Ah there's the reporting mark! Again, nice job NS! This is my favorite Heritage unit so far!
|
it's nice to see this stunning scheme again, but how about opting for the Mars lights? Seriously though, notice how this photo shows the difference between the black paint used on the underframe (which I believe is called Duco,) as opposed to that applied to the carbody, (perhaps Satin Enamel.) This is sometimes noticeable in black and white builder's photos, but seldom in color media, but I'm sure the refected light off the bright ballast helps here.

Another "job well done", thanks again NS.
|
Beautiful shot of a beautiful loco ! Definately going in my favorites.
|
Wow! Are you looking UP, this is how you do it.

Really amazing job here. It seems the stripes on the nose distract from the much discussed headlight pocket. Also, great observation above on the different colors of "black" applied to this unit.

Another spectacular paint job--the best one so far! But couldn't it have been spotted in a better location? All that scrap rail and tie plates and general clutter in the foreground doesn't present a very positive corporate image.
As many units as they're going to do, it shouldn't be that hard to make a nice clean spot an engine length long that they could use for the company portraits. In fact, if they just picked up that scrap and backed the unit up 20 feet to get away from the switchstand this looks like it would be an ideal location.

Hey CSX !, time to wake up.
|
Excellent! Thanks for posting, NS. Where isn't there scrap and general clutter on the railroad? Especially at the loco shops. Personally, I find no problem with it. I am pleased the someone from NS takes the time to post these photos here, fast.
|
Mark Lynn... ITS A RAILROAD. Keep them coming NS. They look great.
|
Give those switchstand throws a coat of the loco's yellow! Another winning "unicorn" for digital loco hunters.

I know it costs good money to paint like this, but, man, it'd sure liven up the RR scene to have a couple dozen more of these.
|
Very cool!!! What's next? Which road? And yet BNSF just sits and watches:(
|
Can hardly wait to see the Illinois Terminal unit!
|
I love it! Very classy. True heritage schemes.
