War Eagle!
Title:  War Eagle!
Description:  Before Terminal Railroad Alabama State Docks (TASD) went to black paint it had several units painted in the colors of the state!s two major Universitys- either red/white for 'Bama or Orange/Blue for Auburn. SW1500 682 shows the Tigers' hues in 1978. Ten years in the Alabama sun has taken its toll on the paint job- it would soon be repainted in black. This is about as simple as an SW1)00 can get, with a small fuel tank, hood-mounted hand rails and friction bearings.
