MP GP15-1 1656
Title:  MP GP15-1 1656
Description:  MP GP15-1's 1568 and 1656 at Cotter, Arkansas on February 25, 1991, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 1568 show the typical paint scheme of the as-delivered GP15-1's. Number 1656 shows the application of the small road numbers at the top of the hood. This was typical for the first generation of hood units on the MP, but unusual for a GP15.

MP GP15-1 1656
Title:  MP GP15-1 1656
Description:  MP GP15-1 1656 at Cotter, Arkansas on June 16, 1991, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. There has to be a story behind this locomotive's paint scheme. Although reminiscent of a previous MP paint scheme, the GP15 series had a large road number applied to the center of the hood, certainly not a spray can number.
