In the files section of the CBQList is some excellent information 
concerning Q steam locomotive lettering information. The text portion 
of that information indicates that in later years, the large tender 
heralds used on O-5, S-4s and M-4s could be scotchlite with white 
lettering and striping instead of the traditional gold leaf. I have two 
questions.

1. I have never seen a photo of any of these three classes with white 
lettering on the herald. Does anyone have one and can they share it? I 
would particularly be interested in an O-5 so lettered.

2. If the herald lettering was white, what color was the rest of the 
locomotive lettering; i.e. cab sides and rear of the tender?
