A freshly painted Central of New Jersey 1071 on 146 train
Author: dantat13

Hi guys, I was off work today and seen the Central of New Jersey heritage #1071 at the roundhouse this morning in Decatur, IL. After studying the roundhouse for a while, 1071 was assigned to lead 146 and left town Eastbound around 2:30p.m. I seen where it attracted a lot of attention out East for having the black door. I can tell you the entire nose was painted fresh orange and blue and Miss. Liberty never looked so good. Here is a video of NS 146 passing through Tolono, IL earlier this afternoon. NS 1071 & NS 8130 heading to Bellevue, OH 05/16/2019

Good to see it back in it's glory -- last time I saw it the cab door was black...

The Airchime K5LLA horn is the standard used on the SD70ACe's to meet FRA minimum and maximum sound decibel standards.
