soo788_MinneapolisMn_10+11+85_jshepard

A study in nose lettering. This view of SD40-2s #770 and #788 shows the latter's atypical lettering placement below the nose grab irons, versus above. A couple SD40-2s received unorthodox lettering over the years; fonts, placement, etc. I'm not sure there's many images of them sitting side by side with a properly lettered unit.

 

We can thank Jim Shepard for chronicling history on October 11, 1985 while spending time in Minneapolis.
