Airbrushing on a large scale
Enjoy the Video
How do you paint a locomotive? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eAk2rWjGrE#)
Excellent video, thanks. Just confirmed what I suspect most of us already knew - masking off is the most time consuming part of any air brushing project.

I personally think the loco would have looked better in Armor Yellow ........ a little Harbor Mist Grey along with Red highlights ;) :D
Now thats what I call music :thumbsup:
What is it?
PS I didnt like the colours but where do they get the :ngauge: people from to airbrush it?
Not sure about the music Jon cant tell you i'm afraid but information about the loco i do have ;)
Norfolk Southern is placing a one-of-a-kind "Veterans Locomotive" into freight service on its system to honor people who have served in the military and reserves, especially those employed by the railroad. Painting the Veterans Locomotive involved 26 NS employees, two of whom are veterans, using 66 gallons of primer and paint over a 112-hour period.
Over the past six years, Norfolk Southern has hired some 1,300 veterans, and today 14 percent of the total NS workforce -- more than 4,200 employees -- are veterans and members of the National Guard and Reserves. More information about working at Norfolk Southern can be found at NorfolkSouthern-veterans.jobs.
Ever wondered how a locomotive is painted? Check out this time lapse video of the Juniata Paint Shop in Altoona, Pa., and how they worked their magic to create the Veterans Locomotive.
