http://espee.railfan.net/halloween.html SP 630 made it to 1962, at least: http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?11,2704257 Date: 05/26/15 12:03 Re: Halloween SP F7's Author: Geodyssey Over 200 units received the black & orange "Halloween" paint shceme between spring 1957 and summer 1958 when it evolved into the long-lived gray & scarlet scheme. Far more diesels than wore the Daylight shcheme.
The following 23 cab units were definitely painted in the black & orange "Halloween" scheme: F3A SP 6152 F7A SP 6257 F7A SP 6332 F7A SP 6342 F7A SP 6348 F7A SP 6351 F7A SP 6362 F7A SP 6364 F7A SP 6371 F7B SP 8127 F7B SP 8207 F7B SP 8240 F7B SP 8268 F7B SP 8274 F9Am TNO 611 F9Am TNO 630 F9Am TNO 631 E7A SP 6000 E7A SP 6001 E9A SP 6051 PA-2 SP 6024 PA-2 SP 6039 PB-2 SP 5922 Need photo confirmation of these five: F7A SP 6263 F7A SP 6385 F7B SP 8258 F9Am TNO 613 F9Bm TNO 724 A more complete list in .xlsx format, along with other unusual SP paint schemes can be downloaded from my Dropbox at: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/80998212/SP_Uncommon_Paint_Schemes.xlsx or shortcut https://db.tt/NmSQkSaN Edited 2 time(s).
