- 🥁 Drumroll pleaseeee..... the Virginian restoration is complete! ✨
It took 10 carmen 550+ hours to restore and repaint NS1069. Over 72 gallons of primer, paint and clear coat were used.
Over the next few years, all 20 of our Heritage locomotives will be getting a fresh coat of paint in the color schemes of our predecessor railroads. 👏
Which #NSHeritageLocomotive do you think will arrive at Juniata Locomotive Shop next?
Thank you, NS!
Delay in Block Productions are great, we are absolutely delighted with all you do.
Thank you, Norfolk Southern, this is excellent to see and we are most grateful to you for preserving the railroad heritage.
Thank you to the men and women of Norfolk Southern's Juniata Shops for your great work in beautifully repainting the Virginian Heritage locomotive.
Had Jim Squires still been the president, I dare say he would’ve just ordered it to be painted all black. That idiot pretty much undid almost everything that Moorman had strived for from the steam program to the F-units and even employee morale. Here’s hoping Alan Shaw will do better.
Good god shaw cares.
Yes, we believe that he will do considerably better. This fact, we believe, is a great encouragement to us all.
@johnsmart964 we better get the mandatory 45-day wash on the units. I'm not trying to recatch 1065 1073 1065 and any heritage ace, and they were already repainted and dirtied up within a week.
It’s better than nothing 🤷♂️
Of these twenty, Penn Central 1073 is perhaps the most waiting for an update 🙂Thanks to Norfolk Southern for preserving the heritage!
They should let the PC heritage unit get as dirty as possible as a tribute to the original Penn Central.
No, 1073 should stay as it is. It's dirty paint makes it look even more accurate.
@@GeorgiaStateRailfan Comically yes, but actually no thank you. It needs restoration more than anything.
Wow.
How Smart.

LET’S GOO BOIS! IT’S RESTORED! US RAILFANS TOOK A W TODAY!
Are you Gs4_Fan2?
@@chetumaire Yes. On Roblox. Why?
She looks very pretty now that it's paint has been restored fresh. I remember back in 2017 seeing It sometime in Alabama. Besides that, thank you Norfolk Southern for this wonderful treat.
NS 1069: the movie
Fr
In theaters on idk
Film not rated
Coming to the mainline this fall…
Lol
That’s an interesting video.
Now , THIS is a proper HERITAGE UNIT repaint . NS does it right , the others of competing roads cannot even carry a can of primer.... THANKS , NS !!!!!
Very nice! Looking forward to seeing how all the others look when fresh!
Heritage units done right. 👏🏽
I can't say the same for CSX.
NS is, to date, the only one who did true-to-original heritage paint jobs. Not the abominations that UP, CN and CSX have crapped out. Hats off to them for getting it right! The others only did theirs to be able to continue legally charging for the copyright/trademark usage of their defunct fallen flag identities.
@@anb7408Layoff the UP heritage units. They are good and different. At least they give effort instead of CSX, and CN
@@anb7408UP heritage units are nice
Now this is a heritage unit.
Hey Norfolk Southern, You are my FAVORITE railroad. Keep up your good work and stay strong
I officially dub NS1069 "The Bumble Bee" 🐝 It looks great!
Now that's what a heritage unit should look like!!! Kudos to NS!!?
Thank you to the hardworking men at the Juniata Shops for bringing the 1069 back to life. NS sure knows how to put on an epic show. 😎
Fantastic Job Norfolk Southern!
Thanks Norfolk Southern, this is amazing to see heritage locos getting repainted soon
They all look so good
Caught him on 20E few years back, it really needed it. Looking GREAT
Thank you for painting the nose. We appreciate it
Woo boy, she looks sharp in her fresh new dress!
Cool! Thank you NS 😁can’t wait for NS 1071 to get her turn.
ironic this came out the same day CSX finished announced their C&O heritage unit
It ironic, because both use the 2-6-6-6 allegedly.
Great to have Southern and Virginian Heritage Units Back!
Excellent Norfolk Southern 🎥 😁. Beautiful livery of locomotive 😁🚦🚉
My favorite one of all 😍
Looks fantastic! Well done to the folks at Norfolk Southern’s Juniata Locomotive shops in Altoona, PA!
That is one Boss locomotive! This Soo Line fan says thanks NS and great job!
Norfolk Southern #1069 the Virginian Heritage Unit has been restored and is looking fresh. Welcome back NS #1069.
Stunning paint & a great tribute.
What a beautiful heritage!
This beautiful locomotive
Love it !
oh, hey, the first NS Heritage Unit i saw. :D
Good press for the railroad! Keep it up! I saw this for the first time in 2015 at a ground level crossing gate in Hopewell, NJ and quickly educated on the NS heritage program.
That's interesting video, thank you.
Man, I can't wait for 1073 and 1071!
the first heritage unit i ever caught and it was purely by accident. glad to see they restored this, looks even more shiny from when i saw it.
She is ready to get n the rails again
Such a beautiful looking engine
They did a very good job restoring that locomotive 🙂🙂
An awesome paint job..one of my favorites!!
Nice job NS on giving the VIRGINIAN HERITAGE UNIT a fresh paint job! Once the other 19 HERITAGE UNITS get freshened up there needs to be another poster made for us NS fans to purchase! Cheers from Laurel, Delaware USA
1067 got repainted earlier this year, and technically the southern did too.
@@fostoriadistrictrailfan3907 The southern once was because it was involved in a wreck
@@Elliottblancher I know that lmao that was like 2 damn years ago
Now let's see you give that SW1001 some love too
Yeah I was about to say that that’s a consist that will never happen again
Even though Norfolk Southern went through a pretty tough time with derailments, it looks like they are making a comeback!
She is so shiny
Holy crap, a repaint video worth watching! Too bad CSX couldn't take a hint.....
I can’t wait for ns 1072 to be restored
Awesome job Y'all she's beautiful
CSX, take notes! THIS is how you paint a heritage unit! Very well done!
That is a beautiful locomotive! Great job Norfolk Southern
1074 is up next
Now this is What I called "A New Train"!
If only NS were to help CSX to fully paint there heritage units it would look fantastic
Actually, they should give they're history to NS and pretend like they are NS heritage units in NS territory. There will be 20 more NS heritage units 10 more ES44ACs and SD70ACEs
CSX is about money/stockholders! they are a bottom line corporation the executives at CSX in Jacksonville. They know the Railroads they came from and they couldn't care less... they're about makinmoney, not appeasing rail fans! To them marketing CSX is it first and foremost among everything even on the heritage unit CSX must be the brand that still is represented ...which is bottom line thanking! It will not change!
Looking better than ever!!
Looks awesome! 💯
For the answer to your question, NS 8099 after it’s all fixed up from when it derailed
Nice norfolk southern you do cool things thanks for making a new heretege unit
Awesome
Bravo!! Absolutely beautiful!!!
Hey CSX... are you paying attention?
THIS is how you present a heritage scheme... not the garbage color confusion you guys released from Waycross.
glad to see Virginian Heritage and 8099 Sothern repainted/fixed
That's awesome!
Awesome, she looks great!
NS and UP know how to do heritage units. NS is keeping them up.
None of the UP units are true-to-original schemes. NS is the only one who’s done that.
@@anb7408 they are still better then CSX and their, "Let's not paint the nose."
@@anb7408meanwhile the Union Pacific is the first to have heritage units, and they do honor their fallen flags better than CSX did.
Hubba hubba...she's beautiful!
Nice!
I see how this is going NS release 1069 with a fresh paint job and Csx feels like releasing what they call a heritage
who let NS cook with the fire locomotive edit???
Looks amazing
Here she is
Congrats!
Now that’s a beauty!!!!
Fantastic, now please get 1074, the Lackawanna, back running and repainted!! It's sad that NS cares enough about some HU's to repaint them but leaves others in the dead line for 2 years!! I'm thrilled that they are working to repaint them though. Hopefully they do them all!
Looks good NS!
Cant wait to see the pennsylvania railroad heritage unit and the conrail heritage unit get restored
great job!
I seen like 3 of those here in West Nebraska
Can't wait to see her cross the Nicholson bridge.
Wow, good job Norfolk Southern
The black seems more black than blue, so it would definitely be interesting to see it again. The 2103 that moved it is also interesting, an SW1001 built for Reading

this loco is fire🔥
Looks great guys! keep it up!
What a cool place to work.
Can’t wait until Cantrell of Georgia is repainted and permanently assigned to Savannah, GA so it stays on home rails
Yes, and send the Southern unit to Charleston, SC, the original home of the Southern Railway.
now that is ****** awesome
So did you do the inside too? Cause we as conductors and engineers would appreciate it
Ns says "the next heritage restored of ns is ns 1074 Lackawanna"
WE NEED A CINEMATIC OF THAT SWITCHER GETTIN REPAINTED
AWSOME
Wow!
When will the Lehigh Valley be restored?
I really really love this video. Idk who you hired, but they’re doing an amazing job and I can’t wait to see what else they create.
It's amazing to see that your heritage sweet is finally getting restored right when CSX this is working on their Heritage Fleet also I like your tune Norfolk Southern what's your function keep up the good work Norfolk Southern favorite Railroad❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you'll refurbish some other Heritage units soon
1073 needs to be next
NS 1070 should be next to get a repaint, maybe. If they are doing it in number order?
Awesome 🤩
AWESOME!
Ah yes, this is definitely the most important thing NS should spend money on...FIX YOUR DAMN TRACKAGE AND STOP THE CONSTANT DERAILMENTS!
