Kodachrome fail
Just for future reference for the Trainsimulations painting crew, when SP and ATSF both began painting their kodachrome units, the big billboard lettering was positioned so that after the merger was approved, all they would need to do is add the big billboard SP to SF units, and add the SF lettering to SP units.
Espee units, on the left side, SP was placed towards the cab allowing SF to be added later closer to the radiator
On the right side, the SP was placed towards the radiator, so SF could later be added towards the cab
Santa Fe units, on the left, SF was placed near the radiators, so SP could later be added near the cab.

Your left side lettering was correct on the recent SD45 pack.
Your right side lettering was incorrect on the recent SD45 pack. Fail.
Just pointing this out before more Kodachromes get released. There actually was post-merger logic applied to the pre-merger painting, an unwritten (among railfans) rule that many people with observation skills were able to pick up on.Last edited by geepster775; 02-03-2023, 09:16.My Open Rails videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClc...1kBPO2A/videos

So let me get this straight. You want to fly on a magic carpet, to see the king of the potato people... and plead with him for your freedom, and you're telling me you're completely sane?

With a temperature of 1 degree, though windchill factor making it feel like -18, the train slowly makes its way east, after struggling to build air most of the night in the yard and wasn't able to depart, due to being -17 degrees and a windchill factor of -55.
