--------------------------------------- Update: Photo(s) deleted because there are thieves on Trainorders who download and then use other peoples' photos in books, or simply print and sell the prints, for their own enrichment!!! I don't mind downloading them for your personal enjoyment but I draw the line at selling them or publishing them and claiming they are yours. Sorry I have to do this but the actions of a few screw it up for all. Edited 3 time(s). Last edit at 02/11/20 12:03 by Railbaron.

No, but I have it on good authority there was a desire to find fuzzy dice to hang in the front windshield. Date: 05/25/16 18:46 Re: GP60 With Bling Author: DrLoco "they see me rollin' they hatin'

When we were testing EMD3 with the prototype radial trucks in 1990, one of our test engineers did hang fuzzy dice from one of the visors on the front cab windows. He also put some hot pink air foils on the windshield wipers and stuck a sign saying "Radial Truckin'" under each side window beneath the EMD3 lettering. The loco returned after testing with that stuff intact but our Sales Manager insisted we remove it before it went out for long term durability test. Dave |
