BN FEATURES: Phase II Body with angled blower housing Small EMD plow Leslie 3-chime horn Single Firecracker Antenna Toilet hatch on nose Correct beacon per prototype (Operational in DCC) In an effort to help reduce grade crossing accidents and be more visible to motorists, BN applied orange paint to the front of select locomotives. Due to the colors used, they were nicknamed “Tiger stripes” by railfans. This scheme was later revised to the “white face” scheme adopted in the early 1990’s.
