This was the GP40 painted in 1968 in anticipation of the merger happening 
then...some last minute glitch prevented that and the merger waited unitl 
3/1970. If you search, you can find BN timetables printed up dated '68.
IIRC it was painted sometime in the second quarter and appeared on the cover 
of one of the employee mags later that year. I'd have to double check which 
one.

There were also about four GN passenger cars painted in the hockey stick 
prior to the merger. Walthers modeled one of the domes in HO as part of the 
Empire Builder series.
I also have a slide of a GN boxcar in full BN dress, just with GN reporting 
marks.
