Salford, eat your heart out! The newest look for the Ontario Southland Railway's Guelph division, unique to the former BCOL M420's. This logo, reminiscent of the BCOL logo that once graced these units was designed by OSR Guelph employee Steve Brattina and applied over the Thanksgiving weekend. Salford may have their matching pair of F's but Guelph has a pair of matching M420's! This pair is frequently found working together (but not always) so chance your luck and visit the Guelph Junction Railway if you wish to. If you are lucky, you'll get 'em. :)

    Also I had no idea this was going to happen. Simply chanced on them after finding GEXR at lunch and was surprised to find the new look. It’s a real chore to get OSR in good light as they tend to face the wrong way most of the time. But thanks to the crew (Steve included!) for posing them after finishing at PDI Massey Rd, they look really neat in the Golden Hour’s last light.

    I wonder if they’ll do something similar with that Ex Chessie geep

    Someone has to Volunteer. Salford has their hands full with the F units and other Geeps that have been getting attention. 175 doesn’t seem to be in that great of shape either, as it’s in the Deadline.

    Sign me up. I’ll restore the Chessie paint on 175. Who do I call?

    I’m partial to the original logo.
