A fun play on “what-if” could leave the imagination to visualize what would happen if SP never adopted the Grey and Red “Bloody nose” scheme. We are offering that thought as a reality with this release. Referred to as “Black Widow” from railfans, this is our representation of what could have been if the scheme was still used.
