EDNM was east of CPF-AY with 85 on 04-27-2011 at 1120 hauled by OldPaint 305, NewBlue 612, and Almost Entirely NewBlue 313. How so "Almost Entirely?" Otherwise NewBlue 313 had an OldPaint cab door on the engineer's side. Could this be the newest version of "Guilford Fail System?"
For those who keep track of such things, 85 seems a healthy count, and a bit under one half were paper-related tanks -- slurries with a couple of TiO2s. Musta had a helper up Da Hill, but I wasn't listening when they would have been in Gardner.

Reminds me of this Guilford-painted U23B with a MEC Harvest Gold door:

I also seem to recall seeing a picture of a Guilford-painted GP-something with a B&M Blue door.

At least -- unlike allegations of headlight bulbs and other items -- it's not a foreign road's door that got requisitioned. Armour Yellow probably wudda been too obvious.

I really should make it practice to first see if you've already posted a photo to NERAIL.
