DVD NS's 30th Anniversary Heritage Locomotives

A family portrait at the N.C. Transportation museum
Norfolk Southern has honored its predecessor railroads during 2012, its anniversary year, by painting 20 new locomotives in commemorative schemes that reflect the heritage of those predecessors.  Since the 1820s, hundreds of railroad companies were built, merged, reorganized, and consolidated into what eventually became Norfolk southern, itself created from the consolidation of Southern Railway and Norfolk and Western Railway in 1982. In 1999, Norfolk Southern expanded the scope of its heritage with the acquisition of a portion of Conrail. The heritage locomotives represent most of the railroads that played significant roles in Norfolk Southern's history.
