Date: 05/21/12 10:58 Re: NS - New York Central Heritage Unit Released Author: wabash2800 Will this unit be used in coal train service too and head East? I wonder if it will head north up the New Castle District to Fort Wayne and then on the mainline to Belevue?

There are a few guys from my area here in Indiana that are probably keeping quiet about this in order to get the first photos...<G> Date: 05/21/12 14:58 Re: NS - New York Central Heritage Unit Released Author: NYC6001 Awesome.
Date: 05/21/12 15:02 Re: NS - New York Central Heritage Unit Released Author: nycman Definitely my favorite. Lightning stripes.
Date: 05/22/12 09:41 Re: NS - New York Central Heritage Unit Released Author: wabash2800 There is another photo at railpictures.net (Official NS Publicity Photo) with the red herald on the nose. Looks great! I suppose I am not allowed to post the link here.

I never thought I'd see brand-new New York Central power, now I know it's an NS unit but those lightning stripes look amazing! Another great job Norfolk Southern!!! Keep 'em coming!
