Western Railroad Discussion > Looking Good as New

Recently NS 4369 and NS 4370 were two AC44C6M's out of a couple hundred to leave the GE plant in Fort Worth. There's been a few each week or so I've noticed hanging around Tulsa while changing from trains terminating here to origninating ones heading to Memphis. They sure look good in fresh paint to be originally built 25 years ago.

1) NS 4369

2) A nose on view as I was a little late for broadside sunlight. For some reason all the doors were left open, I assume to allow for ventilation, but not exactly sure.

3) A lower view behind the flowers

Maybe I haven't noticed before, but this is the first one where I've seen them put the model designation similar to BNSF.

All of the units rebuilt by GE for NS have received those applied on the white frame stripe.

Brand "new" from the factory and they already have to leave the nose door open to air out the toilet!

Good looking units.
