The Baltimore & Ohio stuck to a fairly uniform paint scheme for its freight locomotives throughout most of the diesel era – dark Royal Blue with yellow lettering and a yellow sill stripe. The fuel tank, air tank, and trucks, along with pretty much everything under the sill, were painted black. Baltimore & Ohio No. 6412, an Electro-Motive Division GP7, is seen at New Castle, Pa., on July 19, 1969. R.W. Richards photo, Thomas Hoffman collection
