Model Railroading > F-unit Friday ( Santa Fe Style )Date: 09/18/20 17:43 F-unit Friday ( Santa Fe Style ) Author: Txtrainman60 Back in the early 70s, it was faily common to find just about any F unit combination and paint scheme they had at that time. Prior to the CF-7 program, many units had modifications both mechanically and paint wise. Thanks to the coming of Amtrak in 71 and there use of Santa Fe power until new units could be purchased, we got the yellow bonnet and bluebonnet Fs.
