I picked up a 2273, PRR caboose MIB recently, which is sort of
interesting. Although the car is factory painted PRR, you can see
patches of red paint in places where the carbody wasn't painted
brown very well and you can clearly read B&O lettering in places as
well as see the B&O herald.
Is this a common thing with A1G equipment. I once had an Atlas Alco
FA-1 that was factory painted Wabash, but was painted over Rock
Island (I think, I no longer own the locomotive, just remember it).
Any knowledge of this practice would be greatly appreciated.
I will post a picture of this odd car as time permits (I work a lot
of overtime this week!).
