Hol,

  I guess I should’ve put in an example of what I was trying to get across.
  What I’m looking for is a photo of 621, 627, 631 or 637. So I can
verify if the number 1 or the number 7 had the flags on them. Yes it’s a
small detail that some people would over look. Another thing I’ve
noticed between the two styles is that the 170-189 numbers are different
than the 621-639. The latter are more boxie looking. I’m just double
checking to make sure I get them correct.

Randy:

GP40s 170-189 were all delivered with white-on-black number boards,
while GP40s 620-639 all came with black-on-white ones, and I have
confirmed this with photos of every unit in both series.  So, it can
be seen that there were no units containing both the numerals 1 and 7
in their road number that were outfitted with black-on-white number
boards.

In Al Holck's Burlington Route Color Pictorial Volume 2, there a
picture of 631 with white number boards on p78.

Hi Everyone,

 Looking for info and or pictures of Q Chinese Red GP 40’s with white
number boards with the numbers 1 and 7 in them. I’ve checked the
rrphotosarchives.com <http://rrphotosarchives.com> web site and I
didn’t see any with those two numbers.

 Also when and why did the Q have several different units carrying
the white number boards. This information is in line with getting the
re-numbering set correct for the GP40’s and several along the way.
I’m working with
Circus City Decals & Graphics to get it correct.

Thanks in Advance,
