Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS D&H Heritage at the Juniata ShopsDate: 02/26/26 18:40 NS D&H Heritage at the Juniata Shops Author: dwi189 I stopped by the Juniata Shop turntable this afternoon to see the NS 1080 D&H Heritage unit parked on a shop Bay track awaiting attention by shop personnel.

It has gotten a bit dirty compared to a couple years ago when it was cleaned up for NS OCS duty and for an event in Altoona. Dave Williams. Edited 3 time(s). Last edit at 02/26/26 19:13 by dwi189.

I believe the Reading unit has also been repainted. Some of the other EMDs could sure use a fresh coat of paint.

Bob Phelps Micanopy, FL Date: 02/27/26 08:57 Re: NS D&H Heritage at the Juniata Shops Author: bigmc83 I wonder how long it takes to paint one of these heritage units vs the standard NS black. All of them are pretty intricate schemes that require diligance in lettering and logo placement vs the typical horsehead and stripes.
