🗽🚂 No. 2026 – The Lady Liberty 🚂🗽
Created by the skilled team at Juniata Locomotive Shop, No. 2026 combines artistry, precision, and more than 1,000 labor hours of sanding, priming, masking, and painting:
▪️ 96 gallons of primer, paint and clear coat
▪️ Ribbons are painted on and the Lady Liberties are 10-piece vinyl decals
▪️ Approximately 200 of those 1,000 labor hours went into applying the vinyl decals and carefully positioning the ribbons after the white paint was applied
Shout out to the best paint shop in the country – our Juniata crew!
