[CBQ] Black Nose Stripes in 1961

[Stephen Levine <sjl_prodigynet@yahoo.com>]

If I recall correctly, the statement was made that virtually all of the 
passenger diesels were repainted with red nose stripes by 1960.  If I am wrong 
that this statement was made, please let me know.
 
In any case, on page 46 of Michael J. Spoor's Chicago, Burlington & Quincy In 
Color, Volume I, there is a picture of 9985A in black nose stripes, captioned 
as leading train 10, the Denver Zephyr, into Aurora in May 1961.  On the 
adjacent track is the Morning Twin Zephyr, led by an E7A with red nose stripes.
