Posted by Brandon Swart on July 20, 2018  Wow that is Awesome Nice Red & Gray sharp paint scheme Posted by steam_marc on July 20, 2018  What is the difference between this and one of the AC44C6M rebuilds? Looks cool! Posted by Sid Vaught on July 20, 2018  Different electronics is used on this one. BTW after seeing all these different paints schemes wouldn’t you think NS would get the idea. Black belongs on steam locomotives, not diesels. Posted by Tom on July 20, 2018  At last, a decent paint scheme for an NS locomotive !! I second the previous comment and wish NS would make this company wide. Posted by showalterbj on July 21, 2018  Secretly, this is a salute to the ATSF warbonnet. But don't tell anybody [LOL]. Posted by L. Andrew Lovern on July 21, 2018  Norfolk Southern's black locomotives look sharp as well as this scheme. Looking forward to seeing this beauty out on the mainline. Posted by HighBallBill on July 24, 2018  For as much as I applaud NS for incorporating the horsehead into their billboard lettering on loco hoods many years ago, I don’t like the mane look on these recent schemes. Just doesn’t look right. Too much of a good thing, perhaps. However, the red… wow! Really sharp. For safety/visibility reasons alone, one would think NS should consider a permanent change.
