Frankly, all of NS SD80MACs are painted in NS's paint.

@acerocken yeah, its sad though. i havent seen any Conrail colors on the Dash 8s, and the SD60Ms in 2 years

man I grew up with SD80MACS in the Berkshire Mountains in Western Massachusetts. A good 75% of trains would have a SD80Mac on them. Ever since the merger they have pretty much been gone on my line. I occasionaly get 1 about every 3 months or so....

@PaulPeirceFan yeah, i never get SD80MACs on where i live, last time i saw my first SD80MAC was 3 years ago on my birthday, it was in Conrail Paint.

I'll never that day!!! I saw that same train about an hour after you caught It. Man that was some show! =)

[Railfan19960]

@dcrails11 thats awesome! very awesome:)

nice videos man! just one friendly suggestion for your next ones, try not to narrate or talk during the vids. i used to do the same thing but i found videos turn out much better when there is no talking

[KurasFamily]

I didn't understand any of this, I'm not a train person, but this sure did make me smile to see this kid so excited! Glad you got to see something great (whatever it was lol!)

@PaulPeirceFan That's right, I live in eastern NY on the old B&A now Berkshire subdivision. All mostly GE Trash now - it would be nice to see the DPU's back, or better yet CRQuality 4100-4128

At least KATO makes a pretty good model of the 80MAC. I got my hands on all 3 of them. LONG LIVE CONRAIL!!

@dasmikey1964 thats true buddy! i saw a CR SD80MAC in 2008, i dident get to shoot the video of that. i miss Conrail.
