CSX Heritage: Locomotive 1899 Honoring the Pere Marquette Railway
Another CSX Heritage Locomotive is cruising across the rails! Painted by our #ONECSX team at the Waycross Locomotive Shop, CSX 1899 honors the Pere Marquette Railway which served the Great Lakes region in the early 1900s. Our fleet of heritage locomotives offers a tangible link to CSX's past for our employees and the communities across our network, even as we continue to innovate and lead the railroad industry into the future.

Yeah I saw a post a few days ago that said they pulled 3062 and 3063 out for heritage paint, with 3062 being 1967 SCL and 3063 being 1875 P&LE.
Just absolutely stunning.
I Love The Pere Marquette
GET THIS BEHIND 1225!

Oh Cool! I Didn’t Know Pere Marquette Is Part Of CSX’s Heritage! I Only Know Them Because Of 1225

The Pere Marquette was absorbed into the C&O in 1947 which itself later become part of the Chessie System and Finally CSX. And since CSX still uses some of the trackage, the PM is technically a predecessor road.
I'm so glad I got to see it lead M416 on 5/9/24! It's all because of you guys!
Very neat getting to see it in Cincinnati today
Amazing job CSX teamwork, more heritage units to come!
You guys need to have this ride next to 1225 steamer
Great job painting the locomotive, hopefully CSX will pair it with 1869 C&O on various freight routes across the network
I caught Pere Marquette Heritage unit in Philly today.
Amazing heritage unit, nice job CSX
Really nice unit can’t wait to catch h it on the mainline one day
Hi CNX, I’m 11 years old, but my lifelong dream is to work for you guys. Keep up the good work guys.❤

Saw this one in Virginia less than a week after it was released. Easily the cleanest, most beautiful locomotive I've ever seen outside a museum. They did a great job on this one!
Yall did such a great job! Can't wait what the future brings!
One of my favorite heritage units
Another great looking locomotive!
Csx is doing a terrific job on their harratige units
I don't know anything about that particular railroad but the paint scheme is gorgeous!
Great Job!

This looks amazing! Great job CSX!
I’m digging this one!
Another beauty ! Great work 👍
Best one yet! Great job
Hey Csx! I hope you rebuild yall dash 8s and 9s! You guys gotta revive them in another way!
This is your best video on these beautiful units yet And the paint job is amazing and your best yet CSXT is the best railroad in America
Fantastic work guys!!!! CSX is always improving your company❤️👍👍👍
It's great to see these CSX Heritage units out on the rails, while showing where CSX started and grow from there. The Pere Marquette Heritage unit especially. When I saw that CSX was making these Heritage units, I thought that I would recommend the Pere Marquette to be the next heritage unit. Seeing how the PM merged with the Chesapeake and Ohio in 1941. Who would've thought that it would come true. I happen to live where the Chessie system once ran through, and the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Pere Marquette before it.
I love this company keep up the good job

I want to correct something in this video, yes they used the sound and blue prints from 1225 but you guys forgot about 1223, Chris Allsburg himself said both engines were used in the creating of the polar express. Go Michigan!

casually back from georgia from tuesday to saturday and saw L&N heritage yesterday on VRF and probably will moss this unit in Waycross Rice yard since im Floridian
CSX, I dare you to bring the 1899 straight to Michigan for the 1225.
That's Billy's favorite! A friend of mine!

We need to see 1899 assisting 1225 on one of its next excursions.

Hopefully, when this project is completed, all locomotives can be assembled around a turntable like NS did.
*Patiently waiting for CLINCHFIELD 1902*
Now that we have a heritage unit for this railroad. Maybe this can be put behind 1225 for use on excursion train service.
If CSX which is you guys comment on my post and I will get in contact with people at the steam railroading institute in owosso home of the Pere Marquette 1225 so that engine can run behind the polar express this 2024 season for 2-3 months you would have to lease it but I don’t see the problem because you have a ton of locomotives.

Clinchfield Railroad is next or Ontario southland railway is next

Many of these paint schemes they’re doing focused on the FRONT of the locomotive as the “eye catcher.”. The very same front that they instead slapped the ugly CSX junk on the front of. These units could’ve been really special, but I won’t be blowing the dust off my camera to photograph these.

I'm kinda ok with this livery, but in my honest opinion, it's... meh. Its just a variation of the C&O passenger colors, with the exception of the "Pere Marquette" letters in C&O Art Deco script and the PM herald. In my heart of hearts, it should have been gloss black with Venetian Yellow lettering, which was the color worn by PM's small fleet of diesels (which were all EMD SW1 and NW2 switchers) prior to the merger with C&O.

@@MillersRailfan in my view, if a company have to do a heritage unit, you have to do it in a manner that respects the history of the predecessor company. Sure the PM livery is historical, but it is a variation of the C&O passenger colors used immediately before its full integration in 1948. The true historic livery of PM is the color worn by the railroad's small fleet of EMD diesels in the late 1930s through the 1940s, which was gloss black with Venetian Yellow lettering. That’s why I really love the heritage units of Norfolk Southern and a few other entities, like British Airways, which did a faithful recreation of the liveries of its predecessors.
