FW&D 157 |
| Description: |
Fort Worth & Denver Railway class NE13B 157 at Cicero, Illinois on June 8, 1982, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 157 was built by Morrison International Car Company in 1967, was involved in a wreck and sent to a contract repair shop for rebuilding. It returned to service in December 1981, painted in the as-delivered colors, except for the herald and steps. As built, the herald was a Scothlite decal, no longer available in 1981, so the herald was hand-painted on the car. The yellow steps and appliances were a FW&D modification in the 1970's from the original black. The FW&D was formally merged into the BN on December 31, 1982, and had this repair taken place after that date, the car would likely have been painted Cascade Green. |
