Was wondering, what was the heritage, of BNSF GP-38, #2367. Have seen it around, and although it's BN green, it actually has a bright orange paint job, peeking through in various spots. (not the BNSF "pumpkin" orange) Thanks in advance, for any info. Regards :wink:

According to THIS it was SLSF 697, built November 1972.

THIS is what they used to look like.

Thanks LCJ, I was wondering about Frisco, or GN heritage. The orange paint still has a decent gloss to it, where it's peeking through. Maybe some time with a pressure washer, might reveal a little more....... :-D

If it's not all orangy red and cream, it's not orangy red and cream at all, right?
