An engine in an interesting scheme that seems to convey history of its prior owner(s). This engine is likely to get repainted assuming LDS purchased it - most of their engines eventually see the LDS scheme unless they are sold to someone else who requests paint. At left is the former Roundhouse, and in the background is the former Bunkhouse now mothballed.

    Steve, note the engine number. I think “we will never forget” is for September 11, 2001.

    Yes Rob, kind of obvious.

    But the GE logo?

    When you wrote “an interesting scheme that seems to convey history of its prior owner(s)” I thought you were referring to the text on the hood, I realize now you were referring to the logo on the cab.

    An interesting scheme no doubt, for an industrial locomotive.

    This unit left Sarnia today. It was not repainted after all this time. Also unit was once owned by GE Plastics, Selkirk NY hence the GE logo.

    A GE logo on an EMD product? Any pictures of it now? Repainted?
