Or is the mars light not a red one?

 


 IIRC the mars light has a white as well as a red light.  Also, isn't there an exemption for locomotives buillt before 1949?

Talk about giving up your left one!  This is an old friend of mine who runs for Amcrash out of Chicago.  He got called to run this baby out of Chi-town to Galesburg and back over the weekend, making track speed to boot!QE5.jpg

It's a shame we don't have Q (aka expert emeritus on everything) here to tell us what is missing in this thread.

I notice the CBQ 9911A has the "fog horn" sounding horn/whistle.
Growing up in Bham, all the MILW trains/switchers had the
"fog horn" sounding whistle. All the GN and NP trains had locos
fitted with a "multi-chime" horn. Recall watching videos of the
latter steam engine days where they went to a "fog horn"
whistle rather than the age old "steam engine whistle.
The "fog-horn train whistle" is in my memory banks and makes
for many memories of the MILW.
