Specially painted up nine years ago for the bicentennial of the City of Johnstown, the 2000, one of three NW2's on the C&BL roster (and the only active one), still toils along wearing only the second number of its over half century career.

With the erosion of much of its former industrial customer base, the C&BL has gotten into the car storage business over the past decade, as evident in the photo.
From a hint of "Bee" (NKP 765), colorful "Bees" (KCS), "Bees" w/ "attitude", to "Bees" that "sting" your eyes, in their own way they have "Bee" on display! Equipment that "Buzzes" with Yellow & Black colors! ("Bees" can still "Bee" entering this "hive"!)
