Contest: Last Conrail-Painted Engine on NS

HOME ALTOONA-BUILT REBUILDS COMPLETED HISTORY TIMELINE DIAGRAMS PHOTOS OFFICE CAR SPECIAL CURRENT OCCUPANTS POWERPLANT ROSTERS

Photo by Kevin Galau We're down to 100 or less active engines on the Norfolk Southern roster still in Conrail colors. It's a sad thing for us Conrail fans, but why not have a little fun with this.

Think you can guess which of the remaining 100 will be the last active Conrail-painted engine on NS?

All remaining 100 engines have been picked. Now let's see who wins over the next several months it will take to repaint them all!

I'll be using NSDash9.com's repaint notifications to eliminate engines one-by-one until we get to the last one. The last engine/man standing is the winner.

Winner will choose between three top prizes: Unused Juniata Shops Remanufacture plate, $50 Sheetz card, or $50 Walmart card
2nd Place will receive an HO Scale NS F unit
3rd Place will receive an HO Scale NS boxcar.

This contest brought to you by AltoonaWorks.info with some help from NSDash9.com.

Below is the list of remaining active Conrail-painted locomotives on Norfolk Southern.
'Taken' means someone has chosen that number and it is not available.
"Repainted" means the engine has been repainted black and eliminated from the contest.
"Retired" means the engine has been retired and eliminated from the contest.
