Pennsy F7

[dclyde]

Through years of collecting various road named motive power, we have begun to lean towards the pennsy line.  As a result, we have begun stripping and repainting some of our engines.

In my zeal to get our layout to have a more pennsy look, I DCC'ed, stripped and repainted our legacy Minitrix F7A and F7B to tuscan red.  Later research indicates that these engines should probably be brunswick green instead.

My question to all is this:  Has anyone seen any actuate pictures (not model pictures) of a pennsy F7A and or B that is tuscan red?

I searched the Internet to no avail.  The color pictures that I have found all indicate they should be pennsy green.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

That's correct, all Pennsy F units, with the exception of a few FP7's, were DGLE with a single stripe.

Believe it or not, there was actually one Baldwin VO-1000, and one EMD SW? painted in tuscan red, but NO F7's.

OTOH, all passenger Diesels were originally DGLE, including E7's and E8's.

David .. Let me direct you toward Jerry Britton SLPF site ... its probably one of the best PRR resources out there, other than 3rdrail
