There are a couple of shots in the Mornming Sun DM&IR color book, if you have access to that. The first batch of 8 leased B&LE F7s (1954) had the DM&IR Saftery First logo applied to them while the later batch of 8 (1958) were never relettered from what I can tell. All 16 were returned in 1961 (originally to be returned after the 1959 shipping seaosn, but kept on until the Missabe received its final "transition" diesel order of SD18s in 1960).
