That's what Espee fans call this paint scheme... orange ends with a black car body and frame. SP wanted to do a simplified black widow paint scheme to reduce painting costs. They came up with this scheme, and it didn't last long. Along with a few Geeps, some F units and E units received this paint scheme (maybe some SD7/9's too, but I can't remember for sure). It wasn't a stellar success, and it was dropped. Eventually, the orange and black gave way to grey and scarlet, and the rest is SP history.

Thanks for this Halloween gift as well as your many other contributions to the railsim community!

My twin boys were born on Halloween. Their names are "Orange" and "Black". *!lol!*
