Nostalgia & History > a SOO (DSS&A) Baldwin salad?Date: 06/30/20 07:51 a SOO (DSS&A) Baldwin salad? Author: valmont Here's a Bruce Black shot of ex-DSS&A BLW DRS6-6-1500 #385 @ ? Date was Aug.1964. Known to some as DSS&A's 'salad' paint scheme, it did survive into the SOO era for a time. Think SOO should have adopted it for it's own fleet ; ^ ) ?

The Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic scheme was interesting, but I find the Soo Line scheme of white with red trim and black lettering & numbers to be much more appealing. |
