Just to add t0 my original post, on
later inspection I see the trucks have also been blackened so I
think it's safe to saw the skirts have been likewise painted.

The July image in the new BRHS calendar is of an E5a in front of a
Twin City train. A couple of things puzzle me, wonder if there's
an explanation (and I'm probably incorrectly informed to begin
with). The full length skirts above the tanks are still in place.
I thought this was universally shortened. Am I wrong (probably) or
was the full length one re-installed? I doubt that but looking to
get correct info. More interesting to me however is that it
appears to have been painted black, perhaps to blend against the
fuel tank. It looks too uniform to be road grime. as it been in
fact painted? Thx for any info
