Blue SD35

[NW Mailing List]

Take a look in the shade areas of the slide.  The shade is tinted blue.  That in turn shows the whole slide is tinted blue.  Which gives the engines a blue tint.  
Probably came from the angle of the sun and the amount of humidity in the air.

Mason.... i respectfully disagree that this is blue but rather a overall poor quality tint of the picture misleading you as to the actual color of the unit.  I have shots that clearly show 1536 still being black (with 1/2 moon heralds as delivered) in August of 73 and again in April of 74 and NW black in Sept 81. No units were painted blue beyond 1971 must less 1974.  I'll scan them and send them to the moderator in a separate note. 

Respectfully,
Ed Painter

Since they were all delivered in mid-late 65 just before blue was adopted, and blue was over by 1970, it is at least conceivable that none of them required repainting during the blue period.  Has anybody got a picture of a blue SD35?
