Nice job, CSX. I can't wait for the Atlantic Coast Line unit... or Seaboard Air Line..... or L&N.... or Family Lines... well, you get the idea. Thanks!
I hate how everybody is hating on 1827, it looks good. Don't let these folks get in y'all's head thinking it's bad. Keep on doing what y'all are doing, i can't wait to see the Georgia Railroad Heritage Unit, if that's planned.
So glad to see y'all making official heritage unit. Considering your crew at Waycross has never done a fade job like that it looks great! Don't let these foamer railfans tell you otherwise. Y'all are making a heritage unit with a mix of both old and new schemes. The fade between B&O to CSX is a neat touch I have never seen any other railroad do and I am all for it. Looking forward to seeing the other projects y'all come out with!
I'm so glad CSX finally came around to the idea of heritage locomotives - and I appreciate that you found a creative way to put your own unique spin on the idea. 1827 came out great. Eagerly awaiting Boston & Maine and Maine Central... 😀
What an ingenious concept the front is the present and then it fades into the past I think CSX did an amazing job. I am looking forward to seeing the Chessie system and the western Maryland railroad hopefully in the black red and white circus livery exemplified by western Maryland GP30 501 on the western Maryland scenic railroad.
honestly, the change from CSX on the nose to B&O on the long hood is kinda growing on me, I dig it, it would be cool if they did the full thing or tried a splitting line like 1776, but overall, I like it a lot, they did amazing on this, not bad, CSX
Same for me. I originally hated it, but the more I look at it, the more I think it's a neat design and concept. However, I'm worried about how this will look with some of the paint schemes that CSX may end up doing, I don't think the chessie system unit will work very well like this. They should have put the modified B&O logo on the front. Massive missed opportunity there.
I think they should have done the fade a bit differently. Maybe intensify it, because the dark blue on the lighter dark blue kinda looks weird, like they've given up halfway through.
Beautiful. Wonderful that CSX honors the past, and remembers it: but even if you forget you past it will follow you - that’s what “the fade” means to me. Go Rail.
Theres some people who hate it but me personally, I love this heritage unit to the core! Remembering the B&O is a legacy My Father Used To Work With CSX between 1993-2008. He loved working with yall people
Hopefully a Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line units are on the list. I'm a life long railfan and model railroader and started painting my own CSX Heritage units about five years ago now. So far I have painted five units with several more on the drawing board. Very nice job you guys did, looking forward to seeing it on the rails 👍
"Pulling Our Heritage Behind Us" I absolutely love that statement! CSX could use that as a cool slogan to promote these awesome units. I'm so happy that CSX has finally decided to do this. Thank you, David
I hate that statement. My statement for CSX is preserve the past in the present. NOT PULLING OUR HISTORY BEHIND US! Don't criticise me on this statement.
@@orbitsrailfanvids Sounds like it. Because those idiots of CSX past and present attacked me on Facebook saying the fade on a heritage units looks great. And they called me a dick on-purpose to! The CSX fade on a heritage unit does not look great. IT LOOKS AWFUL! So I am giving this engine 30 out of 100 percent.
B&O is the first railroad in this nation. Heard or Tom Thumb and the Horse? Heard of Monopoly? and Have you heard of the cars that look like wagons? That's B&O they are the first road in the CSX family tree the great granddaddy of all railroads.
Finally !!! I"ve heard how Union Pacific is a big part of American railroad history [ One of the few big American roads that has retained its original name] I agree. But I have always felt that CSX because of its B&O foundation or underpinnings deserves even greater recognition when it comes to American railroad history. That's where American railroading started. UP is aware of its place in American history. Promontory Point etc. But CSX has always seemed rather indifferent . I know history doesn't haul freight but I think it's something to be proud of. But this is a start and I think it looks very good..
I gotta say, the faded scheme is almost genius. It’s a little too sharp but who am I to judge. It’s like they applied the heritage scheme to the long hood and their corporate paint to the cab to represent the timeline, B&O in the past but moving forward it is CSX
Great video and tutorial given of the history of B&O that eventually would be owned by CSX! I personally think the colors worked out well and its the historic color blend from one to another! Nice job to the CSX Paint Shop! Cheers from Laurel, Delaware USA.
You did a really good job on this unit. I collect model trains and I hope Lionel or MTH comes out with an O gauge model of this engine. I would like to have one to run on my layout. Thank for sharing.
What a spectacular looking locomotive and paint job, I am glad that CSX has finally applied the B&O rr heritage paint scheme to one of their locomotives. I was starting to wonder when CSX would finally produce a B&O rr heritage scheme locomotive and now we finally get to see it.
WELL DONE CSX, WELL DONE WAYCROSS! Love the idea of Heritage units to preserve the history of CSX. The fade concept really makes 1827 stand out! Keep up the fine work!
CSX is not gonna change their mind on what the heritage units are gonna look like just because some people got angry..... You do realize that, right? Be grateful they're actually going through with Heritage Units. They could've just said no after all.
@@kennethhanks6712 All I said is that I don’t like the unit and they should do the unit in full B&O paint. If they’re going to do heritage units, why not go all out and fully honor the predecessor railroads instead of changing something that didn’t need fixing. They did excellent on the OCS. Why not do the same for these.
To be honest I think it looks great old with the new the hater’s will hate and they will be jealous and they will cry me I grew up with old school and this looks great
I would love to see this done to some of the older emd units like SD40-2s....but I understand those dont get seen much any more......maybe some of the new EMD units.....after all they were what got B&O so great back in the day!
Railroads are one of the main lifebloods of this great nation. The people that make all this go are heros! I wonder how many folks under the age of 30 even realize this?
@@stephenbrady916 correct the fade unique but it doesn’t mesh all too great with the darker shade of blue. The fade might look better with different colors though.
Nice job, CSX. I can't wait for the Atlantic Coast Line unit... or Seaboard Air Line..... or L&N.... or Family Lines... well, you get the idea. Thanks!
Danny since then CSX Released 1871(ACL), 1850 (L&N), 1972 (Family Lines) and 1900 (SAL) your waits for these Units came true.
They made the Seaboard Air Line unit today
@@JaseChatters And they are set to Paint the Clinchfield Unit which will be CSX 1902.
"Its kinda like pulling our history behind us, with what makes up what we are today."
Goddamn respect.
As a B&O fan this makes me proud
The team did such a good job! 😊
I hate how everybody is hating on 1827, it looks good. Don't let these folks get in y'all's head thinking it's bad.
Keep on doing what y'all are doing, i can't wait to see the Georgia Railroad Heritage Unit, if that's planned.
Why not this just like transfomer
I’m waiting on a Chessie themed loco, the Chessie has always caught my eye because it was bold for a diesel paint scheme.
I always believed that CSX would make heritage units one day. I'm so happy that they're finally doing it.
I subscribed to you
@@Thefatkaylaproctucions256 ok? Thanks. Lol
@@Spartan-ug9uj "ok?" be grateful nerd

There a reason why the other railroads don’t do that. Because it doesn’t look right most of the time.

@@seaboardsystemproductions9714 the same railroad stands for Crash, Smash, explode.
How much did CSX pay you to write this comment?🤡
Restore Chessie kitten as the "C" in CSX.
This has got to be run through Baltimore! And CSX should make a big deal about it too. It's a great tribute!
I'm waiting for it on the CSX NEW ROCK SUB!.....❤❤

But fade to the present is not heritage unit material ya know.
The fade is a wonderful addition! Doing an air brush fade paint job takes skill!

@@TrainsAreReallyCool I think CSX should do something what the Union Pacific did with the Rio Grand unit.
@yousmelllikefart ok
That really is a beautiful paint job. Nice to see a true CSX heritage unit, at long last!
The one I'm dying to see is the Chessie heritage. I can't wait for that one to roll out!
Beautiful. Wonderful that CSX honors the past, and remembers it: but even if you forget you past it will follow you - that’s what “the fade” means to me. Go Rail.
It is a pleasure and an honor to be a CSX shareholder.
How is that something to be proud of?
😂
You one of the reasons why the US railroad’s sucks.
I really like the fade. Today and yesterday, together. That is a really neat concept. I can't wait to see more of them.
Did a great job on the B&O heritage unit. Can't wait to see more.
Great job! This is a dream come true, as I've been waiting for proper CSX heritage units for ages now. Glad you're doing them now.
I'm glad you guys brought it into reality. A wishful thought become true.
The B&O is very dear to my heart for many reasons. So happy to see this! Thank you so much!!

There’s been rumors that both those will be made. Only time will tell though.
There's a list out there, but supposedly, there's some roads on that list that don't have jack to do with CSX.

Thank you CSX for honoring your fallen flags roster!
Note: the Reason for the Fade is for CSX's Heritage of their Paint Schemes with their current scheme which is the YN3C.
Love the fade concept, great idea and unique. Keep it going, we all want more!
Saw this unit in Hendersonville, TN beautiful paint job and love the heritage idea!
Thank you, CSX! Well done!
Looks great! Cant wait to see what will come in the future from the waycross paint shops.
Great job CSX! Can’t wait to see the others!
They're all gonna be fade heritage units like 1827 turned out to be.
It’s a shame BNSF can’t get a clue. This is a heritage unit done right.
The fade looks a little strange, but honestly I'm glad CSX is doing this at all, plus, this gives it a unique identity compared to UP or NS.
CSX used the fade for it's Heritage of it's current scheme (The YN3C) and it's heritage to the fallen flag.
Yea I cotton this once so far pulling a long eastbound stacker through my areas
This is hands down my favorite heritage unit of CSX with chessie system coming in at a close second
Can't wait to see more if there's any in the works! Great job CSX!
They need to do the Chessie system and Seaboard System units as well.
@@norfolksouthernrailfan2006 chessie is gonna look awful with the fade.

Well done CSX! So excited to see Chessie heritage one soon
This is a pretty cool design, can’t wait to see more heritage units!
Nice Job CSX, the concept of the fade is unique.
and now The 14th Monon! Pere Marquette 1225!
It looks amazing. Always hoped CSX would make some heritage units.
Eagerly waiting on SCL, L&N, Seaboard System and Chessie
This is honesty really cool and I’m glad you guys at CSX are making some proper heritage units.
This is an awesome heritage unit!
Awesome! I'm so glad CSX is doing heritage unit's that B&O is beautiful! I can't wait to see a L&N!
This is amazing! I really hope we see more heritage units. A Maine Central yellow and green unit would be amazing!
I had the pleasure of seeing this beauty on 2/10/24 in Deshler, OH when it was the leading engine on M246. Had a ditchlight out unfortunately.
Fantastic, this is great!! I can’t wait to see what else you guys release!
Love the fade idea! Great mix of new and old. Looking forward to the rest of them.
Kudos to CSX to honor their past!
One of my uncles from several generations back founded the B&O railroad.
CSX is my favorite locomotive company
Interesting from CSX.....the past into the future...i hope to see a Seaboard System ... OUTSTANDING job CSX!
I have loved trains it seems all my life. It’s gorgeous - I hope there’s a chance I see it. I have a friend with CSX.
hey CSX i love your locomotives and im a really big fan of your company i railfan you trains in garysburg nc and roanoke rapids nc.
Looks great, I’m ready to see it out on the rails

Okay, it’s been 10 days. Time to see another heritage unit. Wm would look great in fireball, and chessie is awesome.
the fade ia cool touch, can't wait to see the others
Burlington Northern/CSX/Norfolk Southern/Union Pacific/CN/ Kansas Canadian Pacific and all that I injoy watching.
Can't wait to see it on the tracks.

Yes it does
