Doug Harrop Photography • May 1, 1991
In March of 1991, Southern Pacific introduced a new logo, called "speed lettering", inspired by the stacked Rio Grande logo. It was first applied to a group of rebuilt GP40M-2s by MK in Boise, Idaho. Initially, a smaller version of the logo was applied to SP 7107-7111, later adopting a larger version with SP 7112 on April 15, 1991.
Doug was on hand to catch the first two units with the officially adopted logo leading an EUCHX train through Ogden, Utah.
In total, SP applied speed lettering to 1,035 locomotives including new acquisitions from EMD, GE, rebuilt MK, and Southern Pacific, Rio Grande, and St. Louis Southwestern repaints.

from M Parker's library: "look at the rich blacks!" esteemed as the most gorgeously printed book ever (poorly photographed here), from post war Germany. Zapf did all lettering. i've forgotten the punch cutter's name. bad form.

Taken back in the summer of 2006, here's a jumping spider (Phidippus mystaceus, female) that suddenly appeared just as I was getting this pic. We were taking advantage of gloomy weather in the St. Margarets Bay area, deciding to spend a few hours at Indian Harbor. I was poking around piles of fishing gear when I spotted this float among heaps of ropes and net. The spider scooted out from under a rope to where you see it just as I snapped the pic. It sat there for only a second before vanishing in the tangle of net beside the float. I had a supplemental lens in my jacket pocket but as I began reaching for it, the spider was already gone.
Taken with my third digital camera, a Kodak P850, a handy pocket sized 5 MP point & shoot that had a good zoom range and image stabilization. Its main fault was the white screen printed lettering adjacent to each control button that wore off over time.

De belettering is intussen na een renovatie opnieuw aangebracht, maar in een iets strakkere stijl

The Tuscan red & gray paint scheme, with gold accents, rolled debuted on Canadian Pacific in 1949. About 10 years later, in 1960, a modified version of the paint scheme was released featuring script lettering on the long hood. Jump forward another 60 years, and CP decided to revive the paint scheme on 5 rebuilt SD70ACU's in 2019. They look very good.
CP 2816 and the Final Spike Tour needed an additional diesel due to issues with one of the FP9's on Rich Mountain, and to help with upcoming grades in Mexico. When the train arrived in Shreveport, someone noticed CP 7013 nearby and realized its paint fit in perfectly with the special. They gave it an impromptu bath and added it to the train. Freshly washed, that script lettering looks really nice.

I've done two holiday cards this year!
Anyone else finding it hard to put a positive spin on this holiday time?
Old Firestone auto store, closed, under renovation, heard the sign and facade will be preserved. Miami near South Beach.

Back in Buenos Aires City we walked Defensa in Barrio San Telmo to our hotel.
The camera stuck its lens out for a shot of Ristorante il Nonno Bachicha (Grandfather Bachicha Restaurant).
Like many businesses in BA, Ristorante il Nonno Bachicha advertises using Fileteado style painting on their signage, windows and doors. This offering is minimalist Fileteado.
Fileteado is a type of artistic drawing and lettering, with stylized lines and flowered, climbing plants, typically used in Buenos Aires.
The fileteado porteño was born in Buenos Aires at the beginning of the 20th century as a popular decorative practice.
And this is the end of day 5 in Buenos Aires.
So we thought we'd made a good purchase on a couple of ex-UP SD70s. But considering all the emissions requirements and the extra money they'd cost us to operate yearly, and the fact that the Lake States Railway wanted to do some horse trading, we let the 70s go to them in a trade for a couple SD40s. We put them in service upon arrival, but repainting is far down the list of priorities right now. So I came up with a lettering plan to incorporate into the Lake State's blue and grey paint scheme. This is the result and it should work for a while. We've also had many compliments on the layout so everyone's happy until we can eventually break open the IN black and yellow paint cans.
