This SURE LOOKS like a LOT MORE AUTHENTIC CNJ unit than that overly green, bright and shiny RS-3 they turned out a while back. As the classic car hobby has come around to believing in the past few years, "Preseve the Patina !"

Give it time, Rich - in a decade or so - after this unit is repainted into DL&W colors, this too will have earned a patina. Thing to remember - every engine was new once - some more then once, lol.

Interesting shop scene.

Hostled around a couple BN " B " units . Had control to move around to other units . Very interesting photo Mitch .

Black and white, this could be 1955. Very nice.
|
It could be 1955 as is, in color! Sure felt like so. The overhead safety lights probably are the only thing that give the scene away.

Ohh, i saw that in August in the yard last year. Nice to see there finally re-painting ot. Mayby when I go this year it will be done
