In my opinion, the script should be the "new" image (period).

CN had wide white stripes. I don't think they repainted the plows on subsequent shoppings and repaints.

Date: 09/17/19 08:20 Re: CP Heritage Paint Debut Author: eminence_grise I'm pretty sure this paint scheme originated with EMD, designed for the F units. Two other Canadian railways with probable EMD designed paint schemes, Ontario Northland, and Algoma Central.

The Santa Fe "Warbonnet" scheme being a notable example. |
