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.
Letters and number found on the box my granddaughter brought along with some activity in it yesterday. Pastel lettering and number.

The bold SOO lettering on the hood of this candy apple red SD40-2 has held up well over the last 30 years.
This is the former SOO No. 6617, which was built in April of 1983. It survived on the CP for a while before it was sold to Respondek's Squaw Creek Southern Railroad in southern Indiana. It's now in the possession of Mike Roberts, owner of Railway Service Contractors, Inc.
The lettering on the engineer's side of the hood of this unit was patched and stylized to read "SCS" for the Squaw Creek Southern. 12/11/23.
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.

Sign outside an old-school tobacconist in the southern German town of Ladenburg.
The place has everything: Roman ruins, medieval half-timber houses, baroque churches, the automobile museum Dr. Carl Benz...
The problem is the town is just down the road from Heidelberg, where all the tourists throng.
Ladenburg is well worth a visit, if only to avoid the madding crowd.
Old Firestone auto store, closed, under renovation, heard the sign and facade will be preserved. Miami near South Beach.

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.
