    Does anyone have a picture of GP7 SLSF 506 they could post?

    The black and yellow paint scheme would be best, but a Mandarin orange and white photograph would work also.

    Thanks in advance.

    Attached are six additional Frisco GP7 pictures that are in my "Enid" negative collection.

    There are several more, but they are very poor pictures so I am not going to post them.

    These six are not all that great!

    Notice the SLSF GP7s that have been repainted into the Mandarin orange and white livery also have their Leslie horns oriented into the all horns facing forward setup.

    The black and yellow units have the three forward/two to the rear setup.

    Was this a universal change?

    SLSF 518 has ex-ATSF caboose SLSF 1133 in tow. These cabooses looked good on the Santa Fe, even better in their second life on the Frisco.

    The SLSF 526 shot is a good profile roster shot of a late-in-life Frisco GP7.
