Does anybody know if the E2, delivered in yellow and leaf brown, was ever repainted into yellow and gray?
Thanks

The A units, in one of the equalization agreements, went to the C&NW and the SP, so they ceased having Overland Route colors. Somewhere, I've seen a picture of SPs E2A wearing Daylight colors.

The B units eventually went to rebuild as E8Bms. They'd thus wear yellow/gray.

Have you hit either the Durham Western Heritage Museum (don't know how much of the archive records they have) or the UP corporate museum in Council Bluffs?
