Heres a note from Ulta Rails. "D&RGW 5481 was wrecked on 5 December 1950 at Gore, Colo.; wreck damage repaired by EMD, completed with an F7A car body in March 1951; first unit painted in the new gold and silver with four black stripes paint scheme. (F7As 5701-5764 and F7Bs 5702-5753 were the first new units in the new scheme, delivered in June 1952.)

The beginning of a new era , I think your spot on
