CSX Heritage: Locomotive 1871 Honoring the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
The CSX fleet of heritage locomotives is continuing to grow with the introduction of CSX 1871 painted in a custom design honoring the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad (ACL). First appearing in 1871, the ACL was officially incorporated in 1900 and extended from Georgia to Richmond, Virginia, and later into Florida. The ACL merged with the Seaboard Air Line Railroad in 1967 to form the Seaboard Coast Line, which later became part of CSX. CSX 1871 will carry the ACL colors across our 20,000-mile network, reinforcing employee pride in the nearly 200 year history of our railroad.

I think it is great that the railroads maintain a sense of history with these heritage units.

Wow! It looks amazing and pretty accurate to the ACL! Danny Harmon will be very pleased to see this coming down to Florida and hope to see SCL, New York Central, RF&P, WMRY, and others from the heritage in the future. It makes a total of 7 heritage units Chessie System, Seaboard System, Baltimore & Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio, Louisville and Nashville, Conrail, and lastly the newest to join is the Atlantic Coast Line.
Excellent job I can't wait to see it on Rails someday in Lakeland
Thank you CSX!
Absolutely a beautiful heritage unit
Love the look of this unit, definitely my favorite heritage unit so far! I know a lot of people don’t like the CSX front with the heritage on the long hood, but I really enjoy it. It’s a very unique look, makes the CSX heritage units stand out.
Great job! Thank you for finally coming out with what is now my favorite CSX locomotive. Please send it along the Bowline soon.
Another beautiful unit 👍

This one’s going to be my grandmothers favorite out of them all.
FGAR also has some pretty American flag trains that come into CSX Goulding Yard occasionally . I love watching the different engineers rack and stack loads. Some real good about handling slack noise even on the longest pulls. Many take up slack so hard it clacks down the line like domino thunder. Good engineers can whip that slack in & out real quiet .
The Atlantic Coast Line is my favorite railroad! Thank you for making it. Can you maybe put it on a train to Raleigh NC sometime?
Alright! Looking good 👍 Great job I know everyone works hard on making heritage units
2 CSX I need to catch is 1850 & 1871

@@TK-ec5bv That's fine, we can whine. We'll make sure you hear it too.
Wish they would’ve just reversed the fade, made the front of it the heritage scheme and made it the majority, then fade it into CSX scheme at the back, motto could’ve been “letting the past pull us forward”. Just missed potential, but they at least attempted to make something new which they do deserve credit for. I’m not a big fan of this one, the colors just don’t mix very well. I do like the amount of history that was in this video though, so thank you for that, as it’s pretty interesting.

@nikerailfanningttm9046
6 ай бұрын
@@MystiCmeshtoolCSX will probably use the infamous Clinchfield “Coal” Black paint scheme. The reason is because as much as the grey would look good with the yellow striping, it would make the unit look almost identical to the L&N and Seaboard System units. Personally I hope 1902 will have the iconic yellow number-boards on the “CSX” cab end, and the iconic yellow wasp striping on the rear pilot. The yellow number-boards probably won’t happen, but the wasp striping on the rear pilot is going to happen for sure, because a Clinchfield heritage unit without yellow wasp striping isn’t a official Clinchfield unit.
It’s a great paint scheme for a brand new ES44AH. I’d love to see an SD40 in a heritage paint scheme one day.

Yeah they can paint a SD40-2 in a heritage scheme. But if they do, the engine is most likely never gonna come out the yard since CSX put there standard cab locomotives to switching. Unless they make them lead trains again then yeah
