Nice shot! She looks good actually on a train - not just sitting "pretty" for publicity shots Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - Herc Driver - 04-20-2012

Great shot! I'll take that NS in black, the PRR version, and that UP Genset too...all in Nscale if you please. Cheers


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - LiveSteamer - 04-20-2012

Thanks guys, the leader on 11A today was SD40-2 #3433. It sure is nice to see PRR roaming on it's tracks again. The ghost of the PRR must of been in shock when this rolled out of the paintshop in altoona. I have another shot of this coming down the tracks right before I took this photo. Let me find it and I will post it, you get a better view of the power on hand on 11A today.

Nice one Matthew!!!! Thumbsup Thumbsup Thumbsup


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - LiveSteamer - 04-21-2012

Thank you Ralph. The PRR unit is a ES44AC. Now when they do the Penn Central unit it will be a SD70ACe.


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - Brakie - 04-22-2012

The 8102 may not be a E8A but,she still looks good in the passenger 5 striper scheme. Thumbsup

NS 3433 could also be considered a PRR Heritage unit, it began life as PRR 6082.


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - LiveSteamer - 04-22-2012

Here is a view of the power from yesterdays 11A. SD40-2 #3433, SD60M #6765, ES44AC #8102 ( PRR ), UP Genset, and on the rear was two SD40E's. There was a total of 130 cars on 11A. Only the SD40-2 & SD60M were online.

For anyone who may be interested, PRR 6082 was an SD40, it became PC 6082, then Conrail 6335. When Conrail retired it's SD40s, it was rebuilt to SD40-2 specs and became Conrail 6976. When CR was split between NS and CSXT, it became NS 3433.


Re: Norfolk Southern Heritage Fleet - LiveSteamer - 04-23-2012

The Lehigh Valley Heritage unit is completed. Probably sometime this week she will be on 11A. Hopeing for a late call time or for them to have alot of work in Altoona the morning it ships out.
