BNSF LEGACY ES44 #5780
Year after year, there always seem to be more
special paint schemes for modern locomotives. But
we’ve had so many requests for “normal” power
we’ve decided to run some of these as well! Union
Pacific’s newest paint scheme is represented as well
as contemporary companions from many of North
America’s largest railroads. With two powered and a
SuperBass version available for each, you can build
a typical consist or just back up your Heritage Fleet.
Round two of our return of the Norfolk Southern
Heritage roster features five popular ES44AC
paint schemes representing all three branches of
NS’s heritage. Updated with PTC antenna arrays,
locomotives are available in full LEGACY and nonpowered
versions. And as NS is in the process of
refreshing the paint on its fleet, CSX has now joined
the party with their own!
