Great to see another epispde in this series! As someone who appreciates unintentional heritage units, I actually like the nice deliberate touches of predecessor railroads on recently repainted engines, namely UP 3994 and BN 161.
When the locomotive with the CP logo handrawn on the middle of the long hood, i was surprised the NS ex HLCX SD40-2s before the repaint into the NS livery weren't included. Specifically the one at 3:24
3:45 anyone wondering, the original poster said “UP 3985's visit to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Clinchfield "Santa Train" disguised as CRR 676. Unfortunately the wye at Kingsport could not be use as planned and the giant steamer had to be ignominiously towed north to the wye here to turn.”
I'm surprised how I've actually modeled several of these over the years. CP was a goldmine for weird, 'whatever, it'll be fine' paint jobs back in the '90s.
Great video would love to get a Part 3, and if you didn't know NS 4144 is an Old Logo C6M on the Long hood and CSX 1193 at one time an interesting Patch job.
That snoot nose UP SD40-2 was apparently painted in an early test scheme for the Mopac merger. Several units were painted in random variants of the "Armor Yellow" scheme as a nod to how the SP and SCL painted locomotives owned by subsidiary railroads into variants of their existing schemes to avoid confusion between one another. Many early post-Mopac merger units were painted into the "Canary" variant of the UP scheme with "Missouri Pacific" on the sides of the long-hood as seen on the C36-7s, SD50s, and GP50s ordered by the Mopac post-merger.
Good question! Maybe the shop employees should have painted the answer! Also, it kind of reminds me of a certain subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, a company I own stocks in. I wonder if you know what? ;)
2:42 I've seen that thing in person before it had the goofy hand drawn letters on it 💀 UPDATE: It's been repainted into YN3C. Honestly a good decision on CSX's part.
445 was one of a few CSX AC44s sold to CP for parts. By the time the picture of it with CP engine was on it, it was being moved dead in tow. It has since been scrapped as it was only used for parts
It would be nice if someone would go picture by picture to explain what is wrong with some of the less obvious ones. I have an interest in trains, but I can't recognize at a glance when they're using the wrong *font*.
Reminds me of the early 2000s when railroads here in Brazil recieved hundreds of second hand GEs, while a lot of them got repainted some of them barely got patched (patched units only got the OG reporting marks painted over and the nose patched with the BF logo) so of them are still patched to this day 20 years later. More than one ex-BN C30-7 still has its OG number in 2023, one I remember is BN 5099. There was also a Yellow bonnet ATSF unit which I don't remember the number.
2:59 that is just the representation of trains in any media not related to trains when they’re talking about trains. It’s probably also pulling grey bricks with a blue stripe with a tiny red and white stripe
3:53 It’s best if we rest here until the fog lifts said Big boys driver. What are those strange sounds? wondered Big Boy. Then the fog lifted. OH NO! We’re in the scrapyard! Cried Big Boy. The driver had fireman went to get help. Big Boy was all alone, but not for long. Two menacing diesels approached. We got ya this time Big boy. You’ll make fine scrap indeed. Buffer him 70.
If you do a part 3, OHCR 3185 is worth a mention. Ohio central bought the unit from CSX and had the CSX painted out several years ago, but the paint has faded out and the CSX is showing back through. I also believe this unit has been or will be scrapped soon due to the EPA regulations saying the B-23-7S locomotives put out too much pollutants.
I’d imagine if UP 7088 is in a part 3 of this. I saw it in person back on May 30th, 2023. 7088 has a unique font on its number boards, and the nose was repainted with UP’s shield logo.
If you make a part 3 mention Connecticut Southern 3399 which is an Ex-Union Pacific unit which I saw on CHFP with a partially silver side which is there because it was graffitied on
I assume 445 was bought by CP, as it's an AC4400CW and they like rebuilding those, and they have multiple other frankenlocos. Union Pacific 3391 was a prototype paintjob for cheap livery testing for the recent acquirement of ex-MoPac units.
The western Maryland one was a result of neglect by Chessie. The real western Maryland washed their locomotives pretty often. Chessie however gave zero shits
The last locomotive has been through BN, BNSF, and NS, and has had 2 renumberings, While in BNSF it was renumbered to 8106, then on NS, renumbered to 6813.
little story on UP 3994, apparently a former SP employee was disgruntled at a supervisor so in turn he ended his career with UP by finding an ex SP locomotive and giving it the nose job.
If there’s one thing I have learned from my mentor is that railroads especially short lines do not care to paint freight cars and some times even locomotives.

Hey it’s you I 💗 you
1:52: I love how Halton kinda sounds like he’s crying. You can tell he’s losing his sanity (and brain cells) looking at these.
1:33 yup, i remember when CSX Used Times New Roman on the nose.
Great video Great series now we need a part 3 of CSX's horrible quality control and standards
Congratulations for 4000 subscribers!

Well... will those radiators be repainted?
Like the other quirky videos, I found this quite funny!

3:51 GET EM BOYS!!!!
Today is the day I learned CUP is a MAJOR Joshiraku fan
2:01 three rare units on one.
A UP C40-8W, CSX Ex Seaboard System in a very strange paint scheme and a GTW
2:59 i sure do love that locomotive i wish i kne the name of it maybe its my favorite railroad Norfolk Southern or maybe its a GECX locomotive

@@SleepTrain456 Cool But Respectfully What Are You Talking About And What Does It Has Too Do With The Loco?
@@ChristianNoel_Likes_Trains, my joke is that it looks like a BNSF locomotive. However, now that I think of it, it looks patched!
Thanks for asking!
Cool Beans. But For Real Does Anyone Know The Number Or Railroad It Is
2:55 Yo why does that western Maryland SD40-2 looking polish lol 😂 😆 😝 🇵🇱
3:50 anyone know what that sound effect is?
2:42 I've seen that thing in person before it had the goofy hand drawn letters on it 💀
UPDATE: It's been repainted into YN3C. Honestly a good decision on CSX's part.
That was the Crayola unit
3:49 always get me on the floor dying of laughter😂
0:23 saw that exact unit couple days ago it’s in long term storage at north yard in SLC
Interesting and funny railroad documentary! Love it!
445 was one of a few CSX AC44s sold to CP for parts. By the time the picture of it with CP engine was on it, it was being moved dead in tow. It has since been scrapped as it was only used for parts
3:48 : wait :0 *THEY’RE KIDNAPPING HIM, THEY’RE KIDNAPPING CLINCHFIELD 670/UP 3985!!!!!* **also this was the Christmas train**
4:20 is funny because thats not an OCS train-
That csx is still around I saw it on the buckingham branch railroad
3:34
1:50 Bachmann at it again 💀
Yes!!!!!! great to see these videos are back😂😂😂💀💀💀💀
5:13 This is what I expected when we got H3 MACs, not the ones that we currently have with the sharper point on the bottom of the cab.
It would be nice if someone would go picture by picture to explain what is wrong with some of the less obvious ones. I have an interest in trains, but I can't recognize at a glance when they're using the wrong *font*.

There was also a Yellow bonnet ATSF unit which I don't remember the number.
3:51 THERE KIDNAPPING HIM HE'S IN CLINCHFIELD LIVERY Lol
bro we got the devils number at 3:37
2:17, That locomotive was wrecked at Shepard in I believe 2006, repaired, but i have no idea why the font's like that.
2:59 that is just the representation of trains in any media not related to trains when they’re talking about trains. It’s probably also pulling grey bricks with a blue stripe with a tiny red and white stripe
4:29 csX, how tomorrow moves😂
Edit: SAD NEWS: the unit is rebuilt
No its csX, how tomorrow *MOVES*
see es EX
Typography note: The CSX on the GE’s yellow nose was not painted in Times New Roman. It’s actually Clarendon Bold. (1:31 into video.)
4:48 this makes me wanna see some videos on cursed paint job rolling stock now
3:33 I actually Railfanned CSX 5460 Leading on my channel before In Decatur AL

4:48 please do one with cars as well
Im sure many train games are gonna get striked as they'd depict the failpaint of CXS ir XSC XCS or w.e.t.h.
Also 3254 is in NW shade aswell
1:33 WITH TIMES NEW ROMAN ON THE NO-
0:56 Ah yes, my favorite railroad: Ganta Fe.
The BNSF H1 and a half unit is still around btw! I just saw it tie other day
2:56 That wasn't really the WM's fault, it was Chessie System's.

That poor BNSF GE can’t decide if it wants to be Heritage One or Two. How about Heritage OneTwo? (4:02)
4:54 ATSF: You can copy my homework but don't make it obvious TP&W:

we need more of this
OOTON BEET and csX got me.😂😂😂
Yes my favorite Class One is BSNF
If you haven't heard about 940, it has been repainted into YN3C
What is that patch job on up 3994
I assume 445 was bought by CP, as it's an AC4400CW and they like rebuilding those, and they have multiple other frankenlocos. Union Pacific 3391 was a prototype paintjob for cheap livery testing for the recent acquirement of ex-MoPac units.
0:36 I just laughed so hard at this unit, also is this a CSX and Canadian pacific merger?
1:41 LOL
Ok! CIA!
Also CSX/CP 445 is still around, although it's being used for parts by CP
The western Maryland one was a result of neglect by Chessie. The real western Maryland washed their locomotives pretty often. Chessie however gave zero shits
5:26 Is me when the Southern hit the rock slide in Pittsburgh, PA
UP 6344 had a cool gray scheme for a while after being repainted
Wait what was point the union pacfic 3:48
UP 3391 looks like the locomotive you would get in a knockoff trainset of dubious quality.
at 5:02 WHY IS THER A KCS PASSENGER CAR IN FRONT OF IT?!? WHYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!
MAKE ANOTHER PART! Feature BNSF 4729 and 8814 and other units like UP 3479 and SP 7310 & 7319!
ONE JOB CSX, ONE F--KING JOB.
As a railfan I appreciate all trains
awesome video I always laugh at the perfectly cut parts 💀
The last locomotive has been through BN, BNSF, and NS, and has had 2 renumberings, While in BNSF it was renumbered to 8106, then on NS, renumbered to 6813.
One of my fav csx unit 2:43 it’s the crayola unit
1:34 with times new Roman on the nose.
(6:07) - Times New Roman is NOT shown, Clarendon Bold is. Also, the CSX mark is close to / is ITC Lubalin Graph Bold. Just sayin’.
4:00 that locomotive got into a wreck that damaged its body and they threw on a H1 body and they called it a day
CP 4507 haunts me. It gives me ptsd that is 44 times worse than Vietnam.
4:17 to my knowledge it still exists that way

CSXT 445 that one u mentioned is sold off the roster. It belongs to CP Now bc some other AC44's got sold to CP from CSX as well.
What was the locomotive numbered to?
@@harrisonofcolorado8886 No as I forgot to say this locomotive CSX 445 featured here was sold off for parts on CP and scrapped.
8452 is an LMS unit thats why it has no logo
And also I need a remix of the song that was played at 0:26.
3:50
Plot twist: The UP 4014 was kidnapping the CSX 7024
3:37 the engines number 💀
CP rail 3254? I thought it was supposed to be CN 3254 for heritage accuracy!
