MT6 973 also has a patch like this.

Hmm, never seen that before.

That's different. Maybe it's an experiment with the decaling of the engine number. IIRC, GFS was a component of SOU before the merger, like CNO&TP and certain locomotives still use those reporting marks. Funny, I haven't seen any NKP, WAB N&W, LE&W reporting marks on NS locos.
