[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by DanRaitz</i> <br /><br />BN had 6 former SP&S passenger F's, #9750-9760 series, that they used as rotary snowplow power (July,1972 to April,1974). In 1974 they were restored back to regular service, (by reinstalling their traction motors) but remained in their mineral red maintenance-of-way colors until the last one was painted into the black/green in July 1976. <br />There is an section on these F's in the 1974-75 BN Annual. <br />Dan <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Dan, you answered my question right on the money. I thought they had something to do with BN work train, but wasn't sure. Those were the only equipment BN had in that color. I may not paint my F7's in this scheme now that I know, But I might paint my F3's in this scheme and lash up some Athearn work trains in the same scheme. What do you think about that?
