Nice catch. Do you know if it is a lease unit? From either the Laurinburg & Southern (Their colors are about the same) or the parent compant Gulf Mobile & Ohio? Thanks

Thanks, M3rdrail. It's actually owned by OPR. They bought it from Larry's Truck Electric (LTEX) who got it from Canadian Pacific. The Red/White is the OPR's standard colors. My friend, Rod Cox, is a professional sign-painter and he lettered the locomotive by hand.
