This is an excellent film, but I wish two things. That the filmmaker was on the sunny side of the trains and that the film was in better focus. Anyway, regarding the single herald ART reefer at 21:04 in the film, this is rather important. Few if any in-service photos of this paint scheme exist. In fact, it was unknown, until I saw this film, if the scheme actually existed except for a builder’s photo. Note that the buzzsaw is rimmed in blue. This scheme only lasted a year or so before the “Classic Scheme” with both heralds was implemented. Nice, nice find.
