This may be the same paint that was put on the engine after the B&LE sold the engine in '83, but those Railroad Roman numerals on the cab are the wrong font. They are not even close to those she wore while stored in the Greenville roundhouse (or in service). http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=343860 http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=355669 http://www.flickr.com/photos/trainplanepro/5083078953/ vs. http://gelwood.railfan.net/ble/ble-s643jpa.jpg http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/ble/ble-s643an.jpg http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/ble/ble-s643bn.jpg
