Colorful thing. This livery is better choice than later grey. I wonder if you can put a Baldwin sound card in it.
|
Oh my...that is just a gorgeous paint job. Great sky you captured as well, Casey!
|
I like this and all the other Heritage paint schemes WAY better than black and white. I wonder if the cost is that much more. Sure would like to see THESE on the rails more. Add the pony emblem and let them roll!

This is the best looking heritage unit so far. Great job NS!
|
Not even Union Pacific's hertiage paint will ever match that locomotive
|
Red skies in the morning, conductors take warning?

This is just the latest example of why us old geezer photographers lament the passing of the many diverse railroads of the '50s and '60s. It was a lot more exciting and colorful in the old days--and this just explains why. A gorgeous shot of a gorgeous locomotive!

"Red sky at morning, Railfan's hearts warming!"
|
Wonder why they felt the need to add the small "NS" initials under the unit number for this heritage locomotive? Still VERY NICE!
|
Great color and picture
|
Best ever!

I might just have a new favorite!
|
You guys just keep gettin'em right ... I grew up on the "Original" NS in Raleigh and my grandfather was an locomotive engineer for them ... what a wonderful tribute. Thanks again NS, and another great photo Casey!
|
Kille shot and lighting; nice work!
|
It warms my heart to see this little underdog railroad honored with this great looking unit. Not likely to happen but I guess I'll keep wishing that they'd bring this down to NC and run it down the Carolina Coastal past my house!
|
Casey... I do believe you are the only person who could arrange a backdrop sky to be almost the same color as the latest Heritage unit. How do you do it? Beautiful unit and beautiful photo! Thanks again to you and Norfolk Southern! Five Stars and a PCA from me.
|
That's what I call a beautiful thing....
|
NS and Casey: once again another one out of the park. This bad ass nasty photo is a PCA frome me!
|
Great color, that helps this paint scheme out alot! Very nice!
|
Beautiful sunrise sets this unit off.
