C&O F7(A) no.7004 sports an experimental paint scheme applied in 1960 to simplify the paint schemes, yet providing good visibility of the units at grade crossings. Two F7As nos.7004 and 7068, and a GP7 no. 5761 were so painted. The yellow nose was adopted instead, and this too disappeared in favor of a plain blue unit by the late 1960s. Photos of the Zebra units are rare!Photo taken from my slide collection. No photographer listed on slide.
Photos of North America's favorite First Generation locomotives. EMD, ALCO, Baldwin; essentially anything that represents the OG wide cab diesel locomotive
