SD75M in Fresh Paint
Author: funnelfan

The freshly rebuilt SD75M BNSF #254 has been on the Lind Turn this past week, and it leads every other day being turned at Yardley on the balloon track after dropping it's train in the "Hell Hole". With that in mind I made it a point to chase it Wednesday.

Almost looks as good as Warbonnet. Almost.

I might be the odd one out here, but to me that nose job doesn't look too appealing. Maybe if the curves were more like that on a GE this would look better.

A GE nose doesn't have curves.
